(Beaver Falls, PA) Geneva College Athletics announced on Facebook yesterday that Geneva College hired a new college football head coach. Tom Contenta was recently hired by the Golden Tornadoes following a national search and he will become the 30th head football coach in the history of the school located in Beaver Falls. Contenta has served on the Geneva football coaching staff since 2007 and also played for the Golden Tornadoes from 2002-05. Contenta will become just the third Geneva head football coach since 1976. Contenta will replace Geno Demarco, who stepped down after his 33rd season as the head Geneva College football coach, which helped DeMarco become the longest tenured college football coach at any level. Contenta has served as the assistant head coach for the football program next to DeMarco for the last several seasons. Contenta spent time as both the offensive and defensive coordinator for the Golden Tornadoes, and he has also served as the recruiting coordinator for Geneva College for many years.
