moved them into the semifinals against Swainsboro. In one of the best games of the tournament, Lyons fought all the way to the end to claim the victory. Lyons outlasted Swainsboro, 14-13, to move into the Championship Game. In the losers' bracket VRD pulled out a 19-16 win over Bacon County, and then in the quarterfinals blew out Long County 15-3. Those wins put Vidalia in a rematch with Swainsboro for a chance to play in the Championship Game.

It was not to be, though, for VRD as they lost to Swainsboro 10-5 to end their run in the tournament.

That put Lyons and Swainsboro in the Championship Game for a rematch. This time Lyons defense kept Swainsboro from racking up the runs. Lyons, on the other hand, kept their bats going as they plated 15 runs on the way to a 15-7 victory and the Championship.
