This season, the Gainesville boys and girls soccer teams took very different paths to get to the same result: a Region 8-AAA championship. As champs, both will open the postseason at home this week, with the second-ranked Red Elephants boys (15-1-1) playing host to Cartersville on Thursday, and the No. 6 Lady Red Elephants (13-3-2) entertaining Dalton on Friday at City Park Stadium.
