The clue
When everything sleeps, and when it all bounces back.
The rack
Eighteen tiles were on the board. Every letter is worth its place in the alphabet, A = 1 to Z = 26.

The answer
2 words, hitting 172 exactly: WINTER SPRING.
W23I9N14T20E5R18= 89
+S19P16R18I9N14G7= 83
WINTER 89 + SPRING 83 = 172. SumHunt reads left to right, so there is no operator precedence to trip over.
