Beaver Falls, PA– After a stellar defensive effort by senior defensive back Brady Beech (Grove City, PA/Grove City) and record setting special teams game by senior kick returner Josh Guiser (Fayette City, PA/Frazier) in Saturday’s game against the St. Vincent Bearcats, the Presidents’ Athletic Conference selected Beech as the league’s defensive player of the week and Guiser as the special teams player of the week.
Beech picked off three passes, returning them for a total of 75 yards. His first interception shut down St. Vincent’s first play or the game and set up quarterback Aaron Channing’s 19-yard scoring pass to Devin Kelosky. Later in the early minutes of the fourth quarter, Beech made a key special teams tackle and his interception at the Golden Tornadoes' 24-yard line with just 44 seconds remaining thwarted a potential game-winning drive by Saint Vincent.
Guiser returned a fourth quarter kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown, ending a string of 30 unanswered points by St. Vincent and giving Geneva a 34-30 win in presidents’ Athletic Conference action. In the return, Guiser set a Geneva record for career kickoff return yardage with 1898 reaching a career of 1,910 yards.
