GREENSBURG, Pa. – The Geneva College women's soccer team wrapped up the non-conference portion of its schedule on Monday afternoon with a road game at Pitt-Greensburg, and the Bobcats proved too tough for the Golden Tornadoes while defeating Geneva 7-1.  Geneva's record is now 2-4-2, while Pitt-Greensburg improved to 5-2.

The non-conference schedule proved to be a challenging one for second-year Head Coach Kelsey Morrison, who had to navigate the loss of several key players due to injuries, some of which have not returned yet. 

Monday's contest started poorly against a Bobcat squad that was coming off impressive victories over Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) opponents Waynesburg and Allegheny.  Pitt-Greensburg jumped on Geneva early, scoring in the 10^th, 13^th and 17^th minutes to put the Golden Tornadoes in a big hole.  Geneva began to settle down after the early rough patch, but it wasn't enough to prevent Pitt-Greensburg from adding a fourth goal in the 33^rd minute to send the Bobcats into the half with a 4-0 lead.

The Bobcats added to their lead three minutes into the second half.  Sophomore Julia Robertson (Manchester, Conn./Manchester) got Geneva on the board in the 73^rd minute when her shot from the corner of the box went up and over the keeper's head and into the far upper corner.  Pitt-Greensburg added two more goals late to close out the scoring.

Pitt-Greensburg held a 30-12 edge in shots and a 16-7 advantage in shots on goal.  Sophomore Saige Musser (Denver, Pa./Cocalico) led the team with three shots on goal.

Geneva will now turn its attention towards the upcoming PAC schedule, beginning with a road game at Thiel on Friday at 4:30 p.m.
