South Forsyth earned its second region championship in a row—and just the second in school history—with a repeat title-tilt victory over its rival, Lambert, Thursday evening at home. Though the path to the crown wasn't as easy as the year before. South (31-18, 8-0) narrowly avoided losing the match in the fourth set, finding a way to take a 25-23 victory to force a deciding fifth set.
