Picture Perfect Fall Day For Geneva Homecoming

Story by Frank Sparks, Beaver Radio
(Beaver Falls, Pa.) Saturday was a chilly fall day and the perfect scenario for Geneva College’s Homecoming 2022. The day started with a parade in which the Geneva College Golden Tornado Band was joined by the Beaver Falls High School Band, Geneva Students and alumni and the Beaver Falls Little Tigers. City, state, and county officials, and off course floats also joined in as they made their way down Seventh Avenue in the city on their way to Campus of Geneve College.

Beaver County Radio’s Frank Sparks and Curtis Walsh did a live broadcast from the north gate of Reeve’s Stadium from 12:30 to 2:00 PM to celebrate homecoming. The Beaver County Radio Prize Caddy and Personality Prize Wheel were also on hand with prizes from Tri-State Mc Donald’s, Fun For All in Cranberry, and premium gifts from St. Barnabas Health System.

There were many activities planned for the weekend for Geneva Alumni including Food Trucks, an Alumni Dinner, Rugby game, and a special performance by the Geneva Alumni Band.

The Golden Tornados Football team took the field to take on the Allegheny  Gators at 3PM  and the Gators tried to put a little bit of a damper on the festivities by beating the Golden Tornados but Coach DeMarco’s team pulled a dramatic fourth quarter come from behind victory and won 35-21.

Late QB Sneak Sinks Rochester’s Homecoming Match Against Union

“You might call it bend, but certainly not break.”

Bob Barrickman uttered those words as the Rochester defense held fast and denied the Union Scotties a chance at points for a third time in the red zone. However, the dam finally broke in the final minute of play, as Union quarterback Braylon Thomas ran from 11 yards out to give the Scotties the first score of the game, and–as it would turn out–the only score of the game. Bob and John Perrotto had the game from Rochester Stadium on WBVP/99.3 FM and Facebook Live, as Rochester loses a tough one to Union in Class 1A action by a final score of 6-0.

The loss puts the Rams at 2-2 in the Big Seven Conference and 3-3 overall, while Union improves to 2-1 in the Big Seven and 5-2 overall. Rochester travels to Clairton (3-4) for a non-conference Week 7 affair, while Union hosts Northgate (3-4) at Socs Russos Stadium.

Aliquippa Steamrolls Blackhawk 54-3

Tonight’s game opened with 4 back to back turnovers, each resulting in an Aliquippa touchdown. Blackhawk; try as they might, could do nothing in the face of the Quips’ overwhelming offence and defense. The only points scored in the second half of the game were three from a field goal by Blackhawk, and Aliquippa walks away with a decisive victory.
