Kelosky added six more points with a two-yard run at 3:39 in the third quarter to keep Geneva in reach of the Tartans, 17-10.
Carnegie Mellon’s offense exploded in the fourth, recording 10 points in 20 seconds (27-10). The Golden Tornadoes surrendered a team safety for the final 29-10 decision.
Geneva’s defense went to work putting its nose to the grindstone. Jimmy Quinlan (Brookfield, OH/Brookfield) posted a personal and team season-high 17 tackles supported by Joe Shively (Monaca, PA/Central Valley) with 11 and Tim Martin (Moon Township, PA/Moon) with 10.
