Geneva College played its first season of football in 1890. The season consisted of one game, where the team played against the University of Pittsburgh, then known as the "Western University of Pennsylvania". Geneva lost the game, 10–4. Notably, the game was Pitt's first victory. The following year, Geneva played its first full season of football. The team posted a 4–2 record, defeating the University of Pittsburgh twice (12–4 and 6–4), as well as the students from Pitt Medical. The 1891 team also played its future rival Westminster College, winning the game 42–0. These first teams were coached by Professor William McCracken, who coached the team through the 1896 season. During this period, the team played local teams, including Washington & Jefferson College, Grove City College, Mount Union College, Beaver Falls High School, and West Virginia University.
