The Tritons struggled to finish drives and convert on third down, going 2-for-16 in those situations. Despite forcing turnovers, they were unable to capitalize and missed key opportunities in the red zone. Quarterback Chris Arviso connected with Brec Long for several touchdowns, while Cyncir Bowers scored a two-yard run for the Tritons. Coffeyville’s offense was strong, with Long and Arviso leading the way to secure the victory.
Head coach Jesse Montalto acknowledged the team’s missed opportunities and emphasized the need for improvement as they face a challenging schedule.

Despite the loss, players like Bowers and Sauser showed promise on the field, highlighting the team’s potential for growth throughout the season. The Tritons will continue to work on their strategies and performance as they strive to reach the next level in their competitions. Fans can catch the Tritons in action again next weekend at Dodger Stadium.
