Chambers’ return made it 38-34 Farrell, but Tyreq Donlow answered with a 9-yard touchdown run with 3:11 to go to put Ursuline back on top, 40-38.
Wilson had 87 yards receiving for Farrell and also added a rushing touchdown.
Lynch, meanwhile, had a monster game on the ground for Ursuline with 261 yards.
Farrell will look to bounce back on Friday when they host Grove City to begin their Region 3 slate.
