Championship Games on Lambert's Turf
Two Georgia High School Association championships will be determined on Lambert High School's home fields this weekend.
Championship turf will reside at this weekend, and it could mean two state titles for the Longhorns.
The Longhorns host both the Class AAAA boys soccer and Class A-AAAA boys lacrosse championship games Friday and Saturday nights.
Undefeated and top-ranked Lambert (22-0) hosts Greenbrier (20-1) in the soccer championship game beginning at 7:30 p.m. Friday.

Greenbrier also has two consecutive shutouts — 4-0 over Tucker and 2-0 over Starr's Mill.
