Lambert defeated rival South Forsyth at home on Friday night 5-1 behind a stellar pitching performance from Turner Scruggs. Lambert (18-5, 14-1) entered the contest smelling the region title. The Longhorns have a two-game cushion over Northview and West Forsyth for first place in Region 6-AAAAAA. Lambert’s final series of the season is with Northview, so the Longhorns knew it was crucial to take care of business against seventh-place South (12-11, 6-9).
