All six of Lambert's touchdowns came via the rush.

Dylan Shepherd added two rushing touchdowns for Lambert. ... Quarterback Bobby Gabriel scored on a one-yard sneak to make it 34-18 early in the fourth quarter. ... For Chattahoochee, Chase Owens tossed a pair of scoring strikes to Alexion Thompson--one from 25 yards out and another for 40 yards. ...
