GENEVA – The College of Wooster women's basketball team competed for the first time in 10 days on Saturday, taking a 93-59 defeat at Geneva College.

Yet, things fell apart from there. Geneva got its lead back up to 20 early in the fourth and answered Wooster's run with a 12-0 push, eventually extending its lead to as high as 34.
