Capping off a week in which it played only ranked teams, the No.6 Mariemont girls soccer team came out with the sweep, posting a 1-0 victory over top-ranked Roger Bacon at Roger Bacon.

        Earlier in the week, Mariemont bested Madeira, ranked 10th in the Enquirer's Division IIcoaches poll, and fifth-ranked Summit Country Day 2-1.

        Lauren Potts provided the game's lone goal Saturday with 3:50 to play. Whitney Raeon took the ball outside and hit Jen Sarran in stride. Sarran then executed a picture-perfect cross to Potts in front of the goal.

        Raeon and Casey Clukey combined for the shutout, their fourth of the season.
