GREENVILLE, Pa. – Fifth-year senior forward Destiny Johnson (Baltimore, Md./Western) broke the program record for rebounds in a game in Thiel's 95-66 season-opening loss to the Geneva Golden Tornadoes Thursday at Beeghly Gymnasium.

Johnson also scored a game-high 22 points Thursday. She made 9-of-15 shots from the floor and went 4-for-6 at the line.
 
Senior forward Destiny Merriwether (Youngstown, Ohio/East) scored 12 points and corralled seven rebounds. Taylor Susany (Struthers, Ohio/Struthers) and Jessica Wagner (Tionesta, Pa./West Forest) scored eight and seven points, respectively.
 
Isabella Roth led Geneva with 19 points. Mia San Nicolas and Madi Matthews scored 14 points apiece. Emily Bucheit led the Golden Tornadoes with 10 rebounds.
