Parkview vs. Brookwood Is a Possible Matchup in Soccer

Gwinnett high-school sports fans might think of football first when it comes to Brookwood vs. Parkview.

But the county's fiercest rivalry often spills into other sports, sometimes all the way to the state finals.

Brookwood and Parkview have faced each other for state championships in baseball (2012, won by Parkview, football (2002, won by Parkview), boys soccer (2001, they tied) and girls soccer (2003, also a tie).

It could happen again this week.

The schools are one win away from meeting each other for the Class AAAAAA girls soccer championship this weekend. Parkview faces South Forsyth Tuesday, May 14, at 7 p.m., the same time Brookwood is at Harrison.

The schools, located just six miles apart along Five Forks-Trickum Road, finished 1-2 in Region 8 this season.

Parkview (18-3) beat Brookwood (16-4) 5-0 earlier this season.

Two Gwinnett rivals meet Tuesday in Class AA girls soccer semifinal, when Greater Atlanta Christian (18-1) hosts Wesleyan (6-12-1).
