The Red Elephants snapped a three-match losing streak with a crucial Region 6-7A win at City Park on Friday night.
Gainesville (7-5-0, 2-3 Region 6-7A) trailed 3-0 at halftime but rallied for four second-half goals to pull out the come-from-behind win.
The victory also moved Gainesville to within one-half game of fourth place West Forsyth (6-3-1, 2-2 Region 6-7A) with one region match left against No. 9 Forsyth Central next week. The Red Elephants, however, own the head-to-head tiebreaker over West Forsyth if the two teams finish tied for the final playoff spot.
