LAMERTON completed the treble on a windy evening at Altarnun. Victory gave them an eight point lead over nearest challengers Callington who have two games to play.
The visitors were penned in their own half for long periods by a motivated Altarnun side driven on by Jimmy Cole but gradually they got their short passing game together.
The first goal came five minutes before half time when Paul Cowling curled a superb ball across goal for Lee Wichett to run in at the far post.
With the elements in their favour Lamerton began the second half strongly and doubled their lead with a Sean Cann goal. Further goals were added by Cowling and Wickett to wrap the game up.

LAMERTON ended a memorable season with a comfortable victory over Pensilva.
Playing their first game for weeks without pressure to win they relaxed, played good football and the goals come regularly.
Sean Cann got the first from close range followed by a good volley from Kev Swift. Panda Williams chipped the keeper and Paul Cowling scored from a wide angle before half time.
Cann got his second after the break before Graham Cole scored with a fierce drive and man of the match Rich Downing completed the scoring.
The league trophy was presented by Duchy League Secretary Mike Newcombe.
So Lamerton ended the season having played seventeen cup games winning fifteen of them including two cups.
In the league, a very tough league, they played 30 matches winning 25 and drawing 1 with 104 goals for and 28 against gaining 76 points.
It was a terrific season for manager Pete Alford, captain Simon Breyley and the team who played some entertaining football at times but when it really mattered battled for everything.
In the first half of the season the goals came mainly from Kev Fedrick and Steve Wickett who top scored with 39 fom 21 games and, when they were sidelined in the last couple of months,
Paul Cowling Sean Cann and Lee Wickett all scored regularly.
The rest of the lads contributed to one of the best defences in the whole of the Duchy League with ever present keeper Pete Daniel in inspired form at crucial times.
