Commerce, Texas - In a game that was called due to weather (lightning) at the 6:48 mark of the fourth quarter, the #7 NJCAA-ranked Coffeyville Community College Red Raven Football Team was defeated by the #6 Navarro College Bulldogs 31-0 in the 2024 Champs Heart of Texas Bowl.  With the defeat, the Red Raven's final overall 2024 record moves to 9-3 on the season. 

Playing in their 33rd Bowl/Semifinal game in Red Raven football history and their third in four years, Coffeyville simply could not find any traction on the rain-soaked turf in Memorial Stadium in Commerce Texas.

Navarro opened up the scoring early in the first quarter as the Bulldogs blocked a Coffeyville punt attempt and returned it for a touchdown to post a 7-0 lead at the 9:20 mark of the first quarter.  

Navarro scored again in the second quarter capping off a 96-yard 11-play drive with a 4-yard touchdown run to push the score to 14-0 in favor of the Bulldogs.  Navarro finished the first half scoring with a 43-yard field goal as the first half expired to post a 17-0 Navarro lead over the Ravens.

Navarro went on to score a touchdown in the third quarter and another in the fourth quarter to post the 31-0 final.  The game was called due to weather (lightning) at the 6:48 mark of the fourth quarter.  

The decision to end the game early was made by the two schools' athletic directors along with the bowl game director Jack Welch.

The game was marred by multiple unsportsmanlike penalties by both teams throughout the contest.  Overall, Coffeyville was called for 14 total penalties for 155 yards while Navarro was called for 8 penalties for a total of 76 yards.  

Coffeyville managed 171 yards of total offense (136 yards passing and 35 yards rushing) compared to Navarro's 253 yards of total offense (141 passing and 112 rushing).

After being picked in the preseason to finish fifth in the Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference (KJCCC), Coffeyville finishes their 2024 season with a 9-3 record and Co-Champions of the KJCCC.
