Christen Copeland was already quite familiar with Lakeview Academy’s Region 8-A semifinal opponent. The senior guard remembered her freshman season when George Walton ousted the Lady Lions in the state semifinals, then getting some payback as a junior, defeating that same foe in the region tournament semifinals en route to last year’s championship. The sixth-ranked Lady Lions defeated the Bulldogs 63-45 Friday night at the Walters Athletic Center to continue that narrative and punch their ticket to a second-straight Region 8-A Championship appearance.
