PITTSBURGH, Pa. - April 20, 2021 - Chatham University traveled to Beaver Falls this afternoon for a conference doubleheader against Geneva College. The Golden Tornadoes won both games by scores of 7-0 and 5-2 respectively.

In game one, Geneva took an early lead, scoring four runs in the first inning alone. Chatham managed to land just three hits including singles from graduate and senior outfielders Paige Shaftic and Kelsey Benjamin as well as a double from first-year catcher Mackenzie Dunn.

Game two saw improved offense and defense from Chatham. After a five-run first inning for the Golden Tornadoes, the Cougars did not allow any more runs against.

Chatham scored two runs in the game, both of which were brought in thanks to a right field double by first-year Savanna Ahlborn as she tallied her first collegiate hit and RBIs. Sophomore Lauren Haak and senior Kelsey Benjamin were credited with the runs after both players got on base with outfield singles.

Senior Julie Swedberg and graduate Kayla Gee suffered the losses in the circle for the Cougars.
