The Coffeyville Red Ravens football team is coming off another close defeat, falling to the Iowa Central Tritons in a back-and-forth affair, 31-27, last Saturday.

 

The loss drops Coffeyville to 1-3 on the season, but the Red Ravens remain 1-0 in conference play. They’ll have a chance to improve to 2-0 in the KJCCC tomorrow when they host the Garden City Broncbusters during Homecoming weekend.

 

Head coach Nick Dobler says he likes how his team battled back to take the lead in the fourth quarter after falling behind by two scores, however, he’d like to see the Red Ravens stop hurting themselves and put themselves in better situations late in games.

 

Garden City enters tomorrow’s matchup at 2-3 and will look to even its record against a conference opponent. Dobler says both teams are in a similar position, and his squad will need to focus on itself and execute amid a night of Homecoming festivities.

 

The Red Ravens are one of four teams still unbeaten in conference play and will look to build momentum as they head into the heart of their season. Pregame coverage begins Saturday at 12:30 p.m., with kickoff set for 1 p.m. on US 98.
