Football: Lambert valiant comeback effort against Cherokee falls short
L BGabriel 091116 web
SUWANEE — Lambert hoped to carry momentum from its win over Collins Hill last week, but instead it took a little too long to get going. The Longhorns dug out of a hole with 26 unanswered points to take a 36-35 lead in the fourth quarter Friday night, but eventually fell 50-36 to Cherokee on homecoming at The Horn. However, unlike last week where the Longhorns faced a familiar opponent—a team it fell to last year in the state playoffs – Lambert (1-2) and Cherokee (2-2) faced off for the first time.
