They beat Northview 18-8 on Tuesday, and all of their wins have been double digits except for last week's 22-13 win over West Forsyth. They'll close out the week on Saturday at home against Harrison.
- North Gwinnett topped Centennial 16-3 on Tuesday and the Lady Bulldogs are off to their first 5-0 start in program history. Elizabeth Blumthal and Shannon Costelloe led the way with 5 goals, with Haley Gorke adding 3 goals and Katie Knazek adding 3 assists. Samantha Gladstein had 5 saves, moving her season save percentage to 56 percent.
- West Forsyth is 1-1 so far this week, suffering its first loss of the season, 20-15 to Johns Creek on Monday and bouncing back with a 17-9 win over Archer the next day.
