Little goes right for Geneva in finale, falls to Westminster 38-3

Picture of Little goes right for Geneva in finale, falls to Westminster 38-3

Beaver Falls, PA - Westminster’s Khurazze Williams caught a touchdown pass on the Titans’ first possession and that was more than Geneva could overcome as the injury-riddled Golden Tornadoes fell at home to Westminster 38-3.

Playing without leading rusher Dylan Jones and a number of key linemen, Geneva managed just over 300 yards rushing but turned the ball over four times and allowed Westminster to gain over 430 yards of total offense.

Geneva’s only score came in the second quarter on a 39-yard field goal by freshman Andrew Dowler (Land O Lakes, FL/Land O Lakes). The loss drops Geneva’s series record against Westminster – one of the longest on college football at any level - to 45-64-8.

Geneva was led by freshman quarterback Aaron Channing (Horsham, PA/Hatboro-Horsham) with 135 yards passing and 56 rushing. The defense was led by junior Thomas Benyo (Berlin Center, OH/Western Reserve) with 14 tackles and an interception.

The highlight of the game actually came at halftime when Geneva retired the jerseys of its top three career rushers – Gerard Muschette, Melvin Cobbs, and Willie Murray.

Geneva finishes the season at 3-7, Westminster at 4-6.
