The Golden Tornadoes finished their regular season with a record of 21-11, 15-3 in the Presidents’ Athletic Conference (PAC). The night highlighted the efforts of the team’s seven graduating seniors.

Senior Grace Hayes (Westminster, MD/Westminster) had a solid game offensively, tallying five kills and four blocks. 

Senior Gabrielle Dickson (Brookfield, OH/Kennedy Catholic) shone defensively with 14 digs, two blocks, and four kills. Dickson’s 1834 career digs give her the record for the third most digs in Geneva College history.
