The Parkview Panthers will take on the May River Sharks at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday. Parkview's last four games have been decided by no more than a goal, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
The home team had come away the winner the last four times Parkview and Norcross had met, but sadly for the fans who attended this one that wasn't the case. The Panthers fell just short of the Blue Devils by a score of 2-1 on Thursday. While losing is never fun, Parkview can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Georgia soccer rankings (they are ranked 147th, while Norcross are ranked sixth).
Meanwhile, May River had already won five in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 5.8 goals) and they went ahead and made it six on Friday. While the 1-1 score might suggest a draw, it was the Sharks who were credited with the win. May River got it done in the shootout by posting four goals to Bishop England's two.
May River's victory was their seventh straight at home, which pushed their record up to 12-4. Those home wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 42 goals over those seven contests. As for Parkview, their loss dropped their record down to 5-9.
