Early mistakes cost again as Geneva falls at Case Western Reserve

CLEVELAND, OH - Geneva scored on its opening possession - on a 1-yard run by sophomore Brandon Hacker (Columbiana, OH/Columbiana) but that turned out to be the only early highlight of the game for Geneva.

Case Western Reserve responded with 26 unanswered points and, although the Golden Tornadoes mounted a comeback, it fell short and Case Western Reserve prevailed 33-19.

It was Geneva′s 10th straight road loss, dating back over two years as the Golden Tornadoes dropped to 1-5 on the year, 0-4 in the Presidents′ Athletic Conference.

Geneva fell behind 26-7 in the third quarter before Geneva got untracked and made the game close. Junior Dylan Jones (New Castle, PA/Laurel) scored on a 2-yard run with 1:35 left in the third quarter to cut the deficit to 26-13 after three.

In the fourth quarter, freshman quarterback Aaron Channing (Hatboro, PA/Hatboro-Horsham) passed to sophomore wide receiver Devin Kelosky (Ellwood City, PA/Riverside) for a 3-yard scoring play with 3:03 left to cut the gap to 26-19.

Geneva tried to continue the comeback with an onside kick but Case Western Reserve recovered and Anthony Canganelli sealed the win with a 41-yard scoring run.

Channing finished with 273 yards passing, completing 23 of 42 passes and senior Josh Guiser (Fayette City, PA/Frazier) had six receptions for 112 yards. Defensively, the Golden Tornadoes were led by sophomore Jimmy Quinlan (Brookfield, OH/Brookfield) with 18 tackles and senior Nick Goforth (Inwood, WV/Mussleman) with nine.

Geneva returns to action next week, hosting Bethany at 7 p.m. for its community night game, waiving the admission fee for all fans.
