The Ramblers (10-6) led 22-14 at halftime and stretched out their lead to as many as 16 points in the third quarter. But a 13-0 run would help the Bulldogs (6-9) slice that lead down to just two points, 34-32, with just under five minutes remaining.
However, Rossville would go scoreless from there on out and LaFayette would close out with an 8-0 run to pick up the win in their final NGAC regular season game.
Tyrese Hunter drained three three-pointers and tied KaDarrin Ramsey for team-high honors with 16 points.
