Allyson Clarke added 15 points, while Rich scored nine and added a team best nine rebounds. Uranker was 0-5 from three-point range, but made the big shot when it counted the most.\n            W & J was led by Emily Hays′ 15 points in the loss as the President′s fell to 5-2 on the season.\n            Geneva will travel to Bethany College on Saturday as it takes its first PAC road challenge.
