Beaver Falls, PA – The Geneva women’s soccer suffered a tough overtime loss to non-conference opponent Anderson University in overtime, 4-3. The loss moves Geneva to 2-1 overall record remaining 0-0 in President Athletic Conference play.

In the second half, senior forward Kimberly Orihel (Green, OH/Cuyahoga Valley Christian Academy) scored in the opening minutes of the second half off an assist from center-midfielder Hannah Sleight (Shapleigh, ME/Homeschool) to give the edge to the GTs. Anderson tied the game late in the second half to force overtime.
