Advantage: Panthers.

Patch snatched back momentum from the archrival Ramstein Royals on Saturday with a 2-0 win in the latest installments of the schools' epic girls soccer feud.

A stingy Panther defensive unit and a masterful eight-save performance in goal by Patch keeper Tyra Hook kept the high-powered Ramstein offense off the board, while the diverse Patch attack produced a goal in each half.

Junior midfielder Kaitlyn Farrar accounted for both of the goals. Her first came just nine minutes in via assist by Danielle Mannier; the second came early in the second half as Farrar consummated a cross kick by teammate Meredith Stuber.

The Royals and Panthers have played for the Division I girls soccer title every year since 2011. Ramstein holds the trophy for now, having won the 2014 title game 1-0.

The loss knocked Ramstein from the ranks of the DODDS-Europe girls soccer unbeaten, which now includes only Patch and Division III Alconbury.

Kaiserslautern 8, Bitburg 0: Friday at Bitburg, the Raiders blasted the host Barons.

Arianna Osmar scored three goals and Hannah Grebos had two goals and an assist in the wire-to-wire rout.

The win was Kaiserslautern's third in a row and continued a season-long trend of strong defensive efforts. The 6-1 Raiders have allowed just one total goal in their six wins.

Black Forest Academy 4, Hohenfels 3: Friday at Ansbach, the Falcons emerged victorious in a showdown of divisional powers. BFA built a 3-2 lead and swapped goals with the Tigers in the second half. Chloe Moortag scored twice and Anna Kragt and Samara Macy added a goal each for BFA. Jessie Gamez, Amelia Heath and Millianie Comas-Ramos scored for Hohenfels.

BFA 4, Ansbach 1: Friday at Ansbach, the Falcons completed a two-win day and kept their perfect record in the division intact with a defeat of the host Cougars.

Moortag and Kraft scored again, while teammates Lois Schotanus and Karen Benjamin also found the net in a balanced BFA attack. Nastya Henry scored Ansbach's goal, while Cougar goalkeeper Khiya Coats posted 19 saves.

The Falcons improved to 3-0 against Division II opponents and 4-2 overall on the season.

SHAPE 3, Brussels 2: Friday at Mons, Belgium, a second-half Spartan goal spelled victory for the home team.

Morgan Malone and Kirsten Carson scored a goal each for the Division III Brigands.

Sigonella 5, Aviano 1: Saturday at Sigonella, the Jaguars clawed their way out of a frustrating season-long slide with a breakout win. Caroline Schumacher scored three goals and Korley Jones and Lynda Reed added one each in the runaway victory.

The win was the first of the spring for Sigonella. Each of its previous three losses were by scores of either 1-0 or 2-0, so the Jaguars broke a season-long scoreless streak along with the losing skid.

Wiesbaden 2, Vilseck 0: Saturday at Vilseck, Janice Teschner scored two first-half goals to point the way to a season-capping Warrior win.

The win was the second straight shutout victory for Wiesbaden, which wrapped up its regular season at 4-1-1.

Shana Wright made 14 saves in goal for Vilseck.

Alconbury records two forfeits: A weekend of soccer at the Division III English school was scuttled when International School of Brussels and AFNORTH failed to field girls teams. The Dragons were awarded a pair of 1-0 wins.
