This looked much more like the Lyon County team that I said I could see failing to three-peat prior to last year's regional tournament and the one I saw struggle against Hopkinsville in last year's regional final than the well-oiled machine that I saw burying teams with quick 12-0 runs in under a minute and a half in this year's regional tournament.

All that matters now is the fact that they've survived. The fact that they were able to win despite not being at the top of their game might not be the worst thing for them going into the next round and getting an opponent that they'll again be favored against.
