The offense just wasn't there for the Red Ravens football team on Saturday, being shut out by Garden City 20-0.
Coffeyville only mustered 177 yards of total offense on the day. Starting quarterback Kolbe Langhi struggled to put the ball in the hands of his receivers early on, and was swapped out for backup Nick Arvay in the second quarter. Both quarterbacks combined for 11-of-31 passing, gathering just 87 yards and 2 interceptions. The running game wasn't necessarily there either, with eight different rushers picking up 75 yards total. The Ravens' one opportunity to score, a 44-yard field goal attempt by Skylar Seagraves late in the first quarter, was blocked by the Broncbusters.
Despite the struggles, the Ravens at least had a chance through most of the contest due to solid defensive play. Both teams combined for 8 punts, with Seagraves outperforming Garden City's Joe Carol. However, with the defense on the field for much of Saturday's game, it was only a matter of time before the fatigue would set in.
A combined rushing attack of Jordan Ford and Devion Hodges would eventually break through to find the endzone twice-- once in the first quarter, and again in the final stages of the fourth quarter. The two combined for 277 yards, with Hodges responsible for both scores.
With the loss, Coffeyville falls to 3-2 on the season. They'll wrap up their season season this week, staying at home to take on the Independence Pirates. That game can be heard this Sunday on 98.1 KUSN at 1:30 pm.
