VP OF INSTITUTIONAL AFFAIRS DR. BRAD SMITH Entering his first year as the Vice President of Institutional Affairs, Dr. Brad Smith brings over 15 years of experience in higher education with him to the Rangers. Born in Killeen, Texas, raised in Brookhaven, Mississippi, and while completing his undergraduate degree at The University of Southern Mississippi, Smith volunteered in the athletics department while working and going to school full-time. He walked into the office of the then Assistant AD for Marketing, Paul Batchelder and asked how he could help the athletics department as it was a dream of his to work in the field. He was given the sport of women’s soccer and flourished in the unpaid role. Being seen as someone who showed initiative and could take on more responsibility, he later interned with ISP Sports at Southern Miss and began gaining valuable experience in corporate sponsorships.
DR.BRAD SMITH speaks to members of the Northwest football team at the start of the 2026 season. Dr. Smith joins the Rangers after spending more than 15 years in higher education with his last stop as Deputy Athletics Director for External Affairs at UTSA.
At some point during his time at UAB, Smith realized that he wanted to lead the external operations of college athletics. This decision led Smith to apply for an open position at Morehead State University where he worked as the Senior Associate Athleic Director for External Affairs and has taken on a several different roles. Through his efforts at Morehead State, total revenue through fundraising and corporate sponsorships has increased by 220% and he is directly responsible for raising over $2.5M in revenue and trade through corporate sponsorships and fundraising. He has sport oversight for football and has led and been a member of several search committees leading to the successful hiring of a head men’s basketball coach, a head softball coach, marketing and media relations staff, and a Vice President of Student Affairs.
After a brief time with the Mississippi Sea Wolves in Biloxi, Mississippi, Smith returned to college athletics with Middle Tennessee State University where he worked as the Assistant Director of Marketing. In that role, he brought many improvments to the department, including social media innovation, record attendance in stadiums and arenas and spending time to develop the next generation. In five years, Smith was promoted to the role of Assistant Athletic Director for Marketing. After five successful years at MTSU, Smith decided that he wanted to challenge himself professionally. He applied to Texas A&M University as Director of Marketing and Jeff Schmahl, who was the Senior Associate AD at Texas A&M, reached out to him about the position.
After a successful tenure at Morehead State, Smith returned to his alma mater, Southern Miss, as Senior Associate Athletic Director for External Operations. He restructured the external engagement team; integrating communications, marketing, creative services and video production, to strengthen the Golden Eagles brand and generate record social media growth and engagement. Smith helped launch Southern Made TV, home to the “True Grit” baseball and “La Familia” men’s basketball docuseries, while overseeing licensing initiatives that increased brand revenue by 73 percent in 2023.
Smith developed a marketing plan for the women’s basketball program that set the all-time season attendance record averaging over 6,100 per game. One of those key initiatives was the “Sell Out Baylor” campaign. It was an initiative created to set the Texas A&M women’s basketball single game attendance record which he achieved on Sunday, Jan. 30, at 12 p.m. A total of 13,162 attended Reed Arena. In 2011, he joined the staff at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) as the Assistant AD for Marketing and Promotions. While there, Smith created and implemented “Hoops on the Haasephalt” which was an outdoor basketball event geared to introduce the new men’s basketball coach, Jerod Haase and jump start the basketball season. Over 3000 fans attended the inaugural event, which was the first of its kind at the time. He also noticed a lack of attendance in specific sections of the basketball arena, so he created the Friends and Family Zone for men’s basketball, and it sold out in its first year with over 300 new season tickets in the new section of Bartow Arena.
Most recently, Dr. Smith spent his time since 2023 at the University of Texas - San Antonio where he was the Deputy Athletic Director for External Affairs. While with the Roadrunners, he helped to spearhead multiple community engagement and revenue generating campaigns, driving record setting attendance and ticker revenue in several sport, incluidng helped them surpass 10,000 season-ticket holders in football for the first time since 2015. Dr. Smith and his wife Melanie Smith have two sons, Grayson, who is a freshman at Northwest, and Garrett, 10 year old son who is often referred to as the “Mayor”.
Collectively, his efforts at MTSU, Texas A&M, UAB and Morehead State have garnered ten national marketing awards from his peers and board of directors at the National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators (NACMA). These awards provided a platform to move to the next stage of development as a senior level administrator.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS JAKE GORDON Jake Gordon enters his fifth year as the Director of Athletics for Northwest Mississippi Community College in the 2026-27 academic year. In his four full years of leadership, Gordon has overseen the growth of the Northwest athletic program, helping bring back men’s golf and be one of three Mississippi JUCOs to start a women’s golf program. 2025 was one of the most successful years for Gordon while at the helm, with another national championship for Northwest women’s soccer in Wichita, KS as well as Region 23 titles for both football and women’s basketball. That was joined with trips to the national tournament for women’s golf, softball, and both men’s and women’s tennis.

The Northwest women’s soccer team won the NJCAA Division II National Championship in Huntsville, AL, along with the MACCC and Region 23 championships in fall 2024. This was the third consecutive trip to the national tournament for women’s soccer.
Since being hired as the college’s athletic director in June 2022, JAKE GORDON has helped Northwest grow both on and off the field. In addition to reviving men’s golf and adding women’s golf, Gordon has also helped establish student-athletes’ success in the classroom.

Gordon came to Northwest in July 2022 from Blinn College in Brenham, Texas, where he spent three seasons as the assistant athletic director for the Buccaneers. While at Blinn, he was in charge of eligibility of all student-athletes, gameday operations and live streaming all home games on the college’s YouTube channel.

Four athletes qualified for the CNFR in 2025-Christian Cagle and Will Collier in steer wrestling and Dakota Smith and Luke Stanley in Bull Riding.
Prior to his tenure at Lakeland, Gordon also had an earlier stint at Blinn College as the communication and sports information specialist for three seasons. Gordon was instrumental in providing coverage to the media on the Buccaneers’ national championship volleyball program in 2014, four national titles in cheer and dance and three national tournament appearances for volleyball, softball and women’s basketball.
Additionally, Gordon was also responsible for hiring an entirely new women’s basketball coaching staff, led by head coach and 2023 Northwest Sports Hall of Fame inductee LaTaryl Williams. In his third season, Williams guided his squad to the NJCAA Region 23 Tournament for the second year in a row. Baseball also qualified for the Region 23 Tournament following the spring season in 2025.
Gordon worked at various newspapers in Utah prior to his arrival at Blinn, including the Salt Lake Tribune, Tooele Transcript-Bulletin, Deseret News and The Vernal Express. While at The Vernal Express, he served as the sports editor, covering high school and local sports for
Gordon has made it a point to highlight the Rangers’ success in the classroom as well, establishing the inaugural Athletic Director’s Honor Roll for the 2022-23 academic year.

Together, the duo helped 194 student-athletes earn recognition to the Fall 2024 Athletic Director’s Honor Roll. Northwest also had three teams (football, baseball, volleyball) earn MACCC All-Academic Team of the Year recognition, while the Ranger football program garnered NJCAA All-Academic Team of the Year honors following the 2023-24 academic year.

After falling in the 2024 season-opener, Parker and the Rangers went on an impressive 10game winning streak, securing the MACCC North Division title and the MACCC championship. Northwest finished the campaign with a 10-2 overall record, falling in a back-and-forth battle to Iowa Western in the NJCAA Division I Football Playoffs.
Parker guided the Rangers through highs and lows in 2021, as Northwest went from a No. 2 national ranking to tumbling out of the polls altogether after a 3-2 start to the season.

Oakley’s first stint with the Northwest football program came as an assistant from the 2002-05 seasons under Bobby Franklin, serving as the running backs and wide receivers coach. He was also a student assistant for the Rangers during the 1998-99 seasons while earning his degree. Northwest was 20-4 with two north division championships, a conference championship and Mineral Water Bowl appearance. Oakley then transferred to Ole Miss where he was a manager for three years during the David Cutcliffe era and head equipment manager during the 2001 season. While at Ole Miss, Oakley earned a bachelor’s degree in secondary education and was part of the Rebel football program that earned bowl berths in 1999 and 2001. Away from the gridiron, Oakley also spent eight seasons as an assistant coach for the Ranger softball program. During his eight years, the Rangers compiled an overall record of 253-118-1, including a 125-49 mark against division opponents. Northwest also captured two division titles during his stay, while boasting four seasons of 30 or more wins. A native of Senatobia, Oakley graduated from Senatobia High School in 1997 and lettered two years in football and three seasons in baseball. He was a member of the Warrior football team that claimed back-to-back district championships. Oakley’s family has been a part of Ranger sports for many years. His grandfather, the late W.C. “Bill” Oakley, is a member of the Northwest Sports Hall of Fame while his cousins, Drew and Brooks, each lettered in baseball. His twin brother, Shane, enters his 12th season as an assistant on the men’s basketball staff at Northwest. Oakley is married to the former Kalon Ferguson of Bruce. The couple has two children, Betsy Ann (8) and Jon Kenning (6).
Oakley has had a hand in producing numerous Division I players, including the aforementioned Sheffield and Diaz (Arkansas State), K.D. Gibson (Charlotte), Jacoby Jones (Ohio/UCF), Braden Smith (Louisville/Cincinnati), Monterio Hunt (Rutgers), JaVonta Payton (Mississippi State/ Tennessee), Pro Wells (TCU), Jamarius Mabry (Jackson State), Derrell Lovelady (Southern Mississippi), Marcus Henry (Middle Tennessee State), Ray (East Carolina), Myles White (Louisiana Tech) and Jamal Mosley (Ole Miss). As a unit, the Rangers’ receiving corps has gone over 2,000 yards in 14 of the last 17 seasons. Last year, Northwest hauled in 164 catches for 2,051 yards and 15 touchdowns. Gibson and M.J. Johnson led the way, combining for 996 yards and 10 touchdowns. In 2023, Northwest hauled in 162 catches for 2,173 total yards and 15 touchdowns, ranking in the top 20 nationally of all three categories. Leading the charge was Jarnorris Hopson’s 35 receptions for 443 yards and four touchdowns, followed by 26 catches from Kyler Hutton, who finished with 422 receiving yards and three touchdowns. Although the aforementioned 2,000-yard streak was snapped due to a COVID-shortened 2020 season, the Rangers still totaled 99 catches for 1,426 yards and 13 touchdowns. As a freshman, Sheffield led the way with 20 catches for 358 yards and five touchdowns, followed by a pair of 200-yard receivers in E. Jai Mason and Keyon Fordham. Northwest rebounded during the 2021 season, tallying up 3,109 en route to the 2021 MACCC title and an appearance in the inaugural NJCAA Division I Football Playoffs. Led by Sheffield’s 1,000-yard effort, Oakley’s unit also benefited from nearly 600 yards from E. Jai Mason and 366 yards from Jacoby Jones. In all, the Rangers’ receiving corps ranked fourth in the nation and topped the conference in yards, while ranking 13th nationally with 21 touchdowns.

ASSISTANT COACHES & STAFF season, but Northwest still rushed for nearly 1,000 yards in six games, finishing with 937 net yards. Veteran running back and all-conference selection Jaquerrious Williams led the way with 463 rushing yards and five touchdowns, followed by 266 yards and a pair of scores from Jamie Shaw, Jr. Jones’ offensive line was outstanding in 2017, allowing just nine sacks in 832 plays from scrimmage and paving the way for the NJCAA’s fifth ranked total offense (485.5 ypg) and 11th-best scoring offense (37.3 ppg). The Rangers rolled up over 500 yards of offense five times and dropped 66 and 61 points on rival East Mississippi.
JIM JONES OFFENSIVE LINE COACH 15TH SEASON Jim Jones enters his 15th season as the offensive line coach at Northwest as part of a second stint with the Rangers.
The Rangers boasted the MACJC’s leading rusher in 2014 and 2015 in NJCAA Offensive Player of the Year Justin Crawford, a free agent signee of the Atlanta Falcons. Kevin Perkins ranked fifth in the conference in rushing two seasons ago with 884 yards and 12 touchdowns.
A native of Chicago, Jones has helped develop 49 offensive linemen who have moved on to the four-year level after Northwest, including 42 to NCAA Division I programs. Some of his most notable signees have included Jakheem Shumpert (Mississippi State), First Team NJCAA All-American LaParka Langston (UCF), Second Team JCGridiron.com All-American Vance Van Every (Ohio), 2019 MACJC Offensive Line MVP and First Team NJCAA All-American center Ashton Gist (Charlotte), two-time NJCAA All-American and current NFL guard Damien Lewis (LSU), Donald Hawkins (Texas), Terry Johnson (Louisiana), and Terrance Malone (Arkansas/East Texas A&M).
Jones spent the 2013 season as the offensive line coach at Pearl River Community College before returning to Northwest. In his first stint with the Ranger football program from 2010-12, Jones’ offensive line helped pave the way for the nation’s third-ranked offense in 2012 (434.1 ypg), fifth-ranked offense (485.4 ypg) in 2011 and 10th-ranked offense (413.6 ypg) in 2010.
Northwest has ranked in the Top 25 in the NJCAA in rushing in all but two of Jones’ 13 seasons and has rushed for 2,000 yards in eight of the last 11 seasons. Quarderman Sloan and Tywun Walters, both Division I signees, became the first running back duo to rush for 1,000 yards in the same season in 2016.
The Rangers averaged 198.5 yards on the ground in those three years, rushed for 200 or more in 15 games and eclipsed 500 yards of total offense 11 times. Northwest exploded for a season-high 439 yards rushing in a 66-41 win over Holmes in 2011, the third-most rushing yards in single-game school history.
The Rangers offense was a machine for Coach Jones, helping them to over 4,600 yards of total offense and 123 rushing first downs, which was third in the nation. They were also 9-15 on fourth down which was 23rd in the country.
Backed by a pair of First Team All-MACJC selections and NJCAA First Team All-American Donald Hawkins, the offensive line allowed just four sacks in 2011 in 648 plays from the line of scrimmage and 11 in 709 plays during the 2012 season behind Second Team All-American Austin Douglas.
In 2024, Jones’ offensive front paved the way for 2,115 rushing yards, led by 1,210 yards from MACCC North Division Offensive Player of the Year and First Team NJCAA All-American D’mariun Perteet. The receiving corps also hauled in 2,000-plus yards, led by K.D. Gibson (Charlotte), and the Rangers finished 10-2 with an MACCC title and the program’s third trip to the NJCAA Division I Football Playoffs in the last four years. As expected, a huge reason for the success of Northwest in 2024 came from a robust offensive line, led by Langston, Shumpert and veteran center Stratton Smith (Austin Peay). In 2023, the Northwest offensive line paved the way for 1,629 rushing yards, led by 631 yards from Perteet, who ranked in the top 20 in the NJCAA for rushing yards. Three linemen received All-MACCC honors following the season: Melvin Collins, Jr., Dylan Spencer and Cameron Pascal.
Jones came to Northwest in 2010 from Lake Forest College where he served as offensive line/ tight ends coach, run-game coordinator and athletic recruiter. Prior to Lake Forest, Jones spent two seasons as a graduate assistant with the offensive line at the University of Virginia where the Cavaliers were 14-11 during his two seasons and appeared in the Gator Bowl following the 2007 season. After giving up 33 sacks in 2007 (2.54 sacks/ game), the Cavaliers improved significantly by giving up just 16 during the 2008 season (1.33 sacks/game). Jones played his college ball at Notre Dame from 1996-2000, playing in 24 career games (21 starts) and being recruited by legendary head coach Lou Holtz. He started at left guard his final two seasons for head coach Bob Davie after playing just three games combined over his first three seasons. He played a key role in helping the Fighting Irish rank 14th nationally in rushing and 17th in passing efficiency during the 2000 season.
In 2022, the Rangers rushed for 2,096 total yards, ranking fourth in the nation and first in the MACCC. Jamarien Bracey and Cayden Betts both rushed for 600+ yards apiece, while Xavier Davis and Cam Young chipped in 288 and 260 yards of their own, respectively. However, the robust rushing attack was largely due to a powerful offensive front, led by ULM signee and NJCAA Second Team All-American Mickle.
Jones was an All-Independent selection by Collegefootballnews.com at seasons’ end and was selected to play in the Rotary Gridiron Classic All-Star game in Orlando. Jones received his degree in sociology in 2000.
Including Mickle, four of Jones’ offensive linemen signed with FBS programs: Matt Williams (ULM), Jamarr Davis (Buffalo) and Jalen Nettles (UAB). Additionally, Jakobe McLaurin and David Duvall also signed Division I, joining the rosters of Eastern Kentucky and McNeese State, respectively.
He went on to play in the National Football League for six seasons, spending time with the Baltimore Ravens, Washington Commanders and Pittsburgh Steelers during the 2001-06 seasons. He was twice named the Steelers’ Player of the Game during the 2004 season.
In 2021, the Rangers bounced back for 2,531 rushing yards in 12 games, led by 1,286 yards from Williams. Northwest also passed for over 3,000 yards, thanks to the efforts of Samford signee Michael Hiers. Three of Jones’ linemen were named All-MACCC (Van Every, Austin Wilson and Davion Carter) and several found homes at the Division I level for the upcoming season, including Carter (Memphis), Van Every (Ohio) and Ethan Bumgarner (Southern Miss).
Jones was also a three-year letterman on the offensive and defensive lines at Richards High School. He was a First Team All-State pick on both offense and defense by the Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun-Times and Champaign News-Gazette and named to the Super 25 All-Area Team. He was later inducted into the Richards High School Hall of Fame in 2018.

PAIGE ANDERS DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR SEVENTH SEASON
Prior to his time at Northwest, Anders spent two seasons in the same position at Northeast Mississippi Community College. While at Northeast, he coached one of the toughest defensive units in the MACJC, a group that included NJCAA All-American and MACJC Defensive Player of the Year Sam Williams (Ole Miss). In 2019, Anders’ pass defense at Northeast ranked No. 1 in the nation (126 yds. per game).
Paige Anders enters his seventh season as the Northwest defensive coordinator in 2026. This past year, the Rangers’ defense took another step up, finishing fifth nationally in scoring defense, only allowing 15.4 per game, and were second in the nation in run defense, only allowing 56.3 yards per game, helping them finish seventh in the nation in total defense. Their 35 total sacks were also top ten in the nation, as was their 10 fumble recoveries.
Before joining Northeast, Anders spent a year at Arkansas Tech University and three at Ouachita Baptist. In his lone season at ATU in 2014, he performed the duties of safeties coach and recruiting coordinator, helping the Wonder Boys become the third ranked defense in the GAC. Shai Kobayashi blossomed during his senior season under Anders’ tutelage. He became a NCAA Division II All-American after compiling 80 tackles, 10 passes defended and one fumble recovery for Arkansas Tech.
In 2025, Anders’ defense held the Rangers’ opponents to just 19.9 points per game and his defensive unit ranked in the NJCAA Top 10 in multiple categories, including leading the nation in defensive touchdowns (6). Northwest also picked off 17 passes, the second-highest total among all NJCAA opponents.
During his tenure with Ouachita Baptist, Anders served as defensive coordinator and helped guide the Tigers to their third Great American Conference (GAC) championship. Ouachita Baptist combined a high-powered offense with a stingy defense to outscore its opponents by an average of 44-27 over a five-game winning streak to close the regular season.
Other notable categories the Rangers excelled in were interception return yards (302; 4th), average interception return yards (17.8; 9th) and tackles (807; 10th). Northwest also cruised to a 10-win season and captured the MACCC Championship, while advancing to the NJCAA Division I Football Playoffs for the third time in the last four seasons.
The Tigers qualified for the NCAA Division II playoffs for just the second time in program history by virtue of its GAC title. Anders’ men did their job in the opening round by holding Ferris State (Mich.) University well below their average of 34.1 points per game, but Ouachita State was eliminated with a tough 24-19 road loss.
Several notable pieces anchored Anders’ defensive unit, including defensive back and First Team NJCAA All-American Fredd Adams, NJCAA Honorable Mention All-American D.J. Burgess and highly recruited defensive back Keshawn Davila. Adams led the Rangers with 13 pass breakups and eight interceptions, including four picks in an early-season triumph against East Mississippi, which tied the single-game program record.
Anders had six student-athletes receive All-GAC recognition during his final season with the Tigers. Most notably were linemen Jon Rachal and Ernest Reed plus linebackers Luke Holt and Elijah Jones, who were each second team selections.
Adams signed with Coastal Carolina following the end of the season and Burgess signed with Charlotte, after a stellar Northwest career where he earned back-to-back NJCAA All-American accolades. The Oxford native and son of NFL veteran Derrick Burgess finished seventh on the team in total tackles (35), but second in sacks (4.5) and tied for fourth in tackles-for-loss (6.5).
Ouachita Baptist finished in the top 20 nationally in turnover margin at plus-one and placed third in the GAC in scoring defense at 26.2 points per game under the watch of Anders in 2017. The Tigers went a combined 14-8 during Anders’ initial two seasons in Arkadelphia, Ark. Anders instructed nine all-conference standouts during that time, including two-time honoree Kendrick Henderson at linebacker.
Several others from Anders’ defense signed with NCAA FBS programs, including Davila (Arkansas), defensive lineman Tyeland Coleman (Florida State), defensive lineman Jaylon Johnson (Charlotte) and defensive back Saveon Freeman (New Mexico State).
Prior to his stint at ATU, Anders worked as a graduate assistant at Texas Tech for the 2011 spring semester.
In 2023, Anders’ defense ranked 19th in the NJCAA for fewest points allowed (22.6 points per game), but was one of only 15 teams to hold opponents to an average of less than 300 yards per game (14th; 290.0).
Anders got his start in the coaching business at Valdosta State (Ga.) University in 2003. His primary responsibilities over a four-year stint included assisting with the secondary and linebackers.
In 2022, Anders’ defensive unit ranked 15th in the NJCAA for fewest points allowed, holding opponents to 20.4 points per game. The Rangers also racked up 34 sacks last season, ranking 10th in the nation, and 17 interceptions, good for fifth nationally.
It was during his stay with the Blazers that Anders captured his inaugural national title. Valdosta State secured the NCAA Division II championship in 2004 with a 36-31 triumph over Pittsburg State (Kan.) University.
Much like his first season on the Northwest coaching staff, Anders commanded another stout defense in 2021, helping Northwest to its second consecutive MACCC championship and to the inaugural NJCAA Division I Football Playoffs. The Rangers’ defense ranked top five in the nation and No. 1 in the MACCC for fewest yards allowed, limiting opponents to an average of 243.7 yards per game. Only 87.2 of those yards came on the ground and the Rangers averaged 59.2 tackles a game.
Anders and the Blazers made three NCAA Division II playoff appearances. Among his pupils at Valdosta State was Maurice Leggett, who played a pair of seasons for the Kansas City Chiefs and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers of the Canadian Football League (CFL). Anders is well versed with football inside the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) after previously working at two separate schools in the Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference (KJCCC).
Additionally, Northwest collected 10 interceptions in 2021, the most in the conference and tied for seventh in the nation. The Rangers’ 24 sacks and six fumble recoveries were also among the top 20 nationally.
His first taste of the two-year level was at Butler (Kan.) Community College from 2007-10. He helped the Grizzlies claim back-to-back NJCAA national championships while teaching their defensive backs.
In his first season in Senatobia, Anders’ defense ranked in the top five nationally, averaging

One year later, the Grizzlies finished off the repeat with a thrilling 37-30 double overtime victory over Snow in their second straight Top of the Mountain Bowl. Anders won his third KJCCC crown with Butler in 2010 and had the opportunity to earn a third national title. But the Grizzlies fell to Navarro (Texas) College by a narrow 13-12 margin in the Citizen’s Bank Bowl to come just short of that goal. Butler led the KJCCC in total defense and scoring defense during each of Anders’ four seasons while racking up an incredible 42-5 record in that span. The Grizzlies also topped the league in interceptions in all but one year with Anders on their staff. While serving as the defensive coordinator at Coffeyville (Kan.) Community College, the Red Ravens allowed only 139.1 rushing yards per contest and were a solid 6-3 in home games during his stretch with the program from 2012-13. Coffeyville lost to Hutchinson (Kan.) Community College in the KJCCC semifinals to the end the 2012 campaign with a 6-4 record. The 2013 edition of the Red Ravens improved upon their numbers defensively, but narrowly missed qualifying for the postseason. Overall, Anders has won six league championships and reached the playoffs nine times during his prominent career. Eight of his pupils have garnered NJCAA All-American status while 17 have inked with NCAA Division I institutions in conferences such as the SEC, BIG 10 and Big 12.
No stranger to the NJCAA ranks, defensive coordinator PAIGE ANDERS has coached for some of the most prominent programs in the nation. He helped Butler Community College to a pair of national titles and coached future Dallas Cowboys’ defensive lineman Sam Williams while at Northeast.
Anders earned his Bachelor’s degree in general studies from Valdosta State in 2006. He and his wife Erin have three sons, Beau (16), Jake (11) and Will (8).

CORDELL UPSHAW DEFENSIVE LINE COACH SECOND SEASON
Upshaw coached a pair of All-GAC performers in Brandon Rashad and Tahare Ray, who led a defensive line that racked up 47 TFLs and 17.5 sacks. SAU rose to as high as No. 10 in the NCAA’s Super Region Three rankings.
Cordell Upshaw enters his second season as the defensive line coach for Northwest in 2026. In his first full season, Upshaw led a defensive line that was one of the tops in the nation in yards allowed, only giving up 56 per game to opponents. The Rangers saw Jaylen Thomas take home All-American honors becoming the fifth straight year a NWCC defensive lineman made the list. The Rangers finished 10-2 and won their second consecutive MACCC Championship. Upshaw joined Northwest after a one-year stint at Northeast Mississippi Community College in the same role. His coaching experience dates back to 2009, with stops at various NCAA Division II and Division III programs. In his lone season at Northeast last fall, Upshaw helped the Tigers’ defense rank 12th in the nation for scoring with three touchdowns. NEMCC also finished with eight fumble recoveries, ranking within the NJCAA’s Top 20. Prior to his stint with the Tigers, Upshaw also served as the defensive line coach at Southwestern Oklahoma State University in 2023. While there, he helped the Bulldogs break a nine-year drought without a defensive all-conference selection, as defensive lineman R.J. Powell received All-Great American Conference honors. Powell placed fourth among all defenders with 15.5 tackles-for-loss, while also totaling 78 tackles and seven sacks. Upshaw also briefly served on the staff of Calvin University during the spring of 2023 before arriving at SWOSU. Prior to arriving at Calvin, he spent a five-year stint at the University of North Alabama (2018-22), helping the Lions’ program transition from NCAA Division II to the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision level. While at UNA, Upshaw coached 2021 All-Big South Conference defensive lineman Wallace Cowins, Jr., who totaled 49 tackles, 8.5 TFLs, 4.5 sacks, four quarterback hurries, four forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and a pass breakup. One year later, Micah Bland and Kam’ron Green received preseason recognition from Phil Steele’s College Football Preview. Bland finished the 2022 season with the most tackles among the Lions’ linemen (54), while Green registered a team-high four sacks. In Upshaw’s first season at North Alabama, the Lions compiled a 7-3 overall record, holding their opponents to just 24.3 points per game, including 17 points or less in three of their final four contests. Prior to his arrival with the Lions, Upshaw concluded the third of three separate stints at Southern Arkansas University, his alma mater. He began his coaching career with the Muleriders as a graduate assistant in 2009, and he later served as SAU from 2012-14 and again during the 2017 season, both times as the program’s defensive line coach. In 2017, Upshaw coached a Southern Arkansas defense that led the conference in sacks and tackles for loss, while coaching four All-Great American Conference selections and the league’s Defensive Player of the Year. That season, the Muleriders posted a 7-4 record and the team’s defense finished with 91 TFLs, 33.5 sacks and 28 quarterback hurries. His second stint at SAU (2012-14) coincided with the Muleriders’ return to prominence, as the program won 19 games during that three-year span. including three straight Battle of the Timberlands rivalry wins against the University of Arkansas at Monticello (UAM).
Between his second and third stints at Southern Arkansas, Upshaw coached at William Jewell College in Missouri from 2015-16. During his stint with the Cardinals, he coached Second Team All-Great Lakes Valley Conference selection Aaron Neier, who accumulated 6.5 sacks during Upshaw’s initial season. Prior to the start of his second stint at SAU, Upshaw served as the defensive line coach for one season at Fort Scott Community College in Kansas.

ASSISTANT COACHES & STAFF CHARLES JONES
Jones and the Warriors earned a second consecutive trip to the MACJC Playoffs as the South Division champions, but East Central fell 21-14 in the first round to Northwest. He began his coaching career at the high school level at Bessemer City and Jackson-Olin high schools in the Birmingham metro area. In his final season with the Bessemer City Tigers, Jones helped turn the team around from a 2-8 record in 2011 to a 5-4 winning record in 2012.
DEFENSIVE BACKS COACH SEVENTH SEASON Former SEC and NFL veteran Charles Jones enters his seventh season as the Northwest defensive backs coach in 2026 The 2026 version of the Rangers defensive backfield didn’t have the flashy interception numbers, only getting six as a team during the year, but they did have the 25th best defense against the pass in the country, only giving up 204.1 yards per game. In 2025, Jones coached a stout secondary last season that helped account for 17 interceptions, the second-highest total among NJCAA opponents. The Rangers also led the nation with six defensive touchdowns and finished fourth in interception return yards (302), all as part of the program’s second 10-win campaign in the last three seasons.
Jones’ first coaching gig came as a graduate assistant at Mississippi State in 2008 under former coach Sylvester Croom. He is a graduate of the University of Alabama, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in marketing. While at Alabama, Jones spent four seasons at safety with the Crimson Tide, becoming a starter during his final two seasons in Tuscaloosa. In his junior season in 2002, Jones finished as one of the top tacklers on the Alabama defense, earning 85 total tackles and three interceptions. As a senior in 2003, he was selected as the team’s co-captain and earned 91 tackles with four interceptions, garnering All-SEC honors as a result. He spent one season in the NFL with the New York Giants in 2004, which was followed by a two-year stint with the Georgia Force of the Arena Football League.
Two of Jones’ defensive backs caught the nation’s attention last season: Fredd Adams and Keshawn Davila. Adams, a First Team NJCAA All-American, led Northwest with 13 pass breakups and eight interceptions, including four picks in an early-season triumph against East Mississippi, which tied the single-game program record.
Jones is a native of Waynesboro, Ga. He and his wife, Monica, have been married for four years. The couple also have a stepson, T.J. (33).
Adams signed with Coastal Carolina following the end of the season and Davila inked with Arkansas, choosing the Razorbacks over nearly 80 other offers from NCAA Division I programs.
THE JONES FILE:
In 2023, Davila and Charles Thomas combined for five of the Rangers’ nine interceptions. Thomas and Adams also combined for 12 pass breakups (six apiece), as Northwest finished 7-3 and finished as the runners-up from the MACCC North Division. Jones’ defensive backs were part of a nationally-ranked defense in 2022, finishing fifth in the nation with 17 interceptions and 10th nationally with 34 total sacks. Jones first two seasons with the Rangers were highly successful as well, as the Rangers captured two MACCC titles and the 2020 National Community College Football championship. His defensive backs made up a Top 5 nationally-ranked defense and No. 1 in the MACCC for fewest yards allowed, limiting opponents to an average of 243.7 yards per game. Only 87.2 of those yards came on the ground and the Rangers averaged 59.2 tackles a game. Specifically, his defensive backs were responsible for 39 pass breakups and 10 interceptions in 2021. Byron “Tank” Pearson led the way with nine breakups, while Delta State signee Jarvis Townsend collected five interceptions, including two in a victory against Jones College in the MACCC Semifinals. Pearson’s nine PBU were third in the MACCC and tied for 12th in the nation, while Townsend’s five picks were tied for first in the conference and fourth nationally. Jones arrived at Northwest following a two-year stint as the cornerbacks coach at the Division I Football Championship Subdivision level with Murray State University. Jones coached Nigel Walton, who led the Racers with a team-high 10 pass breakups last season. Walton, along with T.J. Warren, each garnered Ohio Valley Conference Defensive Player of the Week accolades last season. Prior to his stint with Murray State, Jones spent four seasons in the MACJC with East Central Community College, serving as the Warriors’ full-time safeties coach. Additionally, he also spent the 2013 season with ECCC as a graduate assistant.

Game Notes: With the win, Northwest advanced to its eighth MACCC Championship game in the last 10 years. Juju Pope accounted for a passing and a receiving touchdown with his connection to M.J. Johnson in the second quarter. The Rangers intercepted the final pass of the game from Co-Lin in the endzone with Elliott Helps coming up with the pick. It is the second straight game with Co-Lin that has ended in a last minute catch.
The Northwest defense came up with their biggest play of the year against Copiah-Lincoln, picking off the final play of the game to earn a walk off win over the Wolves and punch a ticket into their eighth MACCC Championship game in the last 10 years.
The Rangers offensive line led one of the best rushing attacks in the country this year, and helped to keep NEKO FANN on his feet. The crew was led by JORDAN KNOX, who went on to sign with Kentucky.

Hayden Wolfe’s 51 yard field goal was his second 51 yard attempt and make of the season, and his second longest of his career. The touchdown by Phillips Jr. was his first of the season receiving, going with a punt return for a touchdown. Northwest had their first multiinterception game of the year, with one coming in the red-zone. Attendance: 2731

Game Notes: Despite the loss, Northwest finished with its second 10-win season in the past three years, and made the NJCAA Division I Football Playoffs for the third time since the current format was implemented in 2021. Northwest’s two turnovers were both due to special teams returns. Jerry Wall III had his best game as a Ranger with 10 total tackles including 3.5 TFLs and one sack. Attendance: 2000
Turnovers would be what ended up dooming the Rangers as Northwest fell to #1 Hutchinson Community College in the NJCAA Division I Football Semifinal in Hutchinson, Kansas. The Rangers defense held the Dragons to just 371 yards of offense, one of their lowest totals of the year.
JARVIS DURR took brunt of the carries, going 20 times for 79 yards for the Rangers offense as they were able to grind out another MACCC Championship, taking down MGCCC 16-13 in a thriller.

2025 REVIEW RANGERS SET FOR RETURN RUN AT MACCC CHAMPIONSHIP SENATOBIA - Moving forward into the 2025 season, Coach Parker finds himself answering the typical questions about how to maintain the program’s standing while losing so many to the next level each year. “When you have a program that has developed a standard on the field and in the classroom like we have here, replacing a talented group like our sophomores last year can seem tough sometimes. It’s our responsibility to recruit a new group of guys who are capable of growing and turning into good players and good students each year.” Parker said. Everything starts up front on offense for the Rangers. Offensive line coach Jim Jones has made a habit of sending players to the Division I level over the years and last year was no exception. Jones will look to returners Drew Brewer (Purvis) and Reginhard Pierre-Nau (Jonesboro, Ga.) to anchor his unit early. Connor Hillman (Flora), who played sparingly last year, is another returner who looks to fill a spot up front. The line should be further bolstered by a trio of Division I transfers in Jordan Knox (Rock Hill, S. C./Northwestern), Tanner Welch (Flowood/Southern Miss.), and Amari Smith (Brookhaven/Mississippi State). As experienced as the offensive line may be, the opposite may be said about the defensive line. Defensive line coach Cordell Upshaw arrived in April and immediately began shoring up a position group that graduated three Division I transfers. The cupboards were not left bare, however, as T.J. Spann (Clinton), Jaylen Thomas (Memphis, Tenn.), and Charles Woodard (Starkville) all return after gaining valuable experience in the second unit last year. Myles Miller (Madison) is a newcomer who has shown progress throughout camp.
Northwest returned plenty of experience on their offensive line, led by REGINHARD PIERRE-NAU who anchored one of the best offensive lines in the MACCC.
The group behind that defensive line is a proven group of experienced players. Defensive Coordinator Paige Anders’ linebacking corps is anchored on the inside by returners Rase Jones (Soso), Chris Thomas (Southaven), and Johnathan Faulkner (Senatobia). Jerry Wall III (Olive Branch) and Elliot Helps (Olive Branch) add leadership, athleticism, and experience on the outside. Defensive backs coach Charles Jones has a mix of experience and talent at his disposal. Marion Keyes (Laurel), Dre Riley (Charleston), and Jakwon Morris (Tupelo) will be looked to for leadership as the young group behind them matures. Riley was recently recognized by JCGridiron as a member of the Preseason All-America Third Team. The receiver group is in a similar state as their defensive counterparts. Receivers coach Scott Oakley will rely on a core group led by M.J. Johnson (Enterprise, Ala.), Keon Hutchins (Union), and Britten Traylor (Olive Branch). Three players have taken the majority of reps at the tight end position during fall camp. Only one of those, Jamael Johnson (Oxford), has experience in a Ranger uniform. He gained some time at the position in 2024 but was also a valuable member of special teams units. The other two, Reed Jesiolowski (Brandon/Southern Miss.) and Jourdan Butler (Pearl), have entered the mix in fall camp and should make this a balanced group for Offensive Coordinator Stan Hill. Hill’s running back unit is one that is deep and talented. Ja Keyes (Mount Olive) returns after receiving significant playing time both in the backfield and on special teams last year. The group is rounded out by two Division I transfers and a true freshman. Jarvis Durr (Brandon/South Alabama) and Julius Pope (Pope/Arkansas) transferred in during the off-season and Macaleb Taylor (Grenada) fills out the group. Parker expects to see all four contribute heavily during the season.
KEON HUTCHINS was one of the most electrice receivers in the MACCC, showcasing this in a six-catch, 216 yard performance against Southwest Mississippi.
The specialists will also be a valuable group. Long snapper Joey Colella (Brandon) and kicker/punter Hayden Wolfe (Clinton) both proved themselves under fire in 2024. Wolfe handled all of the punting duties and split kicking duties last season. This year he will handle both duties full-time. “Those two should provide strong sophomore leadership for us,” Oakley stated. Hill’s quarterback room is filled with a mix of experience and potential. Transfers Neko Fann (Moultrie, Ga./Mercer) and Aidan Glover (Olive Branch/Missouri) bring the experience. Fann was part of powerhouse high school program Colquitt County in Georgia and Glover has seen what it takes to win in the Southeastern Conference. The two are joined by true freshman Wyatt Bond (Meridian) who threw for 70 touchdowns during his career at Lamar School. All three should continue to battle for snaps throughout the remainder of camp. Three teams in the MACCC are listed in the initial top 15, led by Northwest at No. 3, Copiah-Lincoln at No. 8, and Mississippi Gulf Coast at No. 10. Though the Rangers will not face either of those two during the regular season, they will face four teams who received votes and sit just outside the top 15. East Mississippi and emerging programs East Central, Holmes, and Itawamba all lurk just outside waiting for their opportunities to move up.

2025 REVIEW RANGERS OPEN MACCC TITLE DEFENSE WITH CONVINCING WIN OVER PEARL RIVER POPLARVILLE – The #3 Northwest Mississippi Community College football team scored 35 unanswered points against Pearl River Community College on Thursday night on their way to a 42-17 win to open the season on the road. The offense was carried by the rushing attack which racked up 366 yards on the way to 522 total yards of offense and a defense that held the Bobcats to -5 yards on the ground on 22 attempts. Pearl River did get off to a quick start in front of their home crowd when Reese Mooney connected with Kendrick Triplet for 31 yards with 11:37 to go in the first quarter only for the Rangers to answer back with a nine-play, 81 yard drive to even the game at 7-7 on a 11-yard touchdown run from Julius Pope. A field goal by the Bobcats gave them what would turn out to be their last lead of the game at 10-7 after a nine play drive stalled out at the Ranger goal line. Neko Fann gave NWCC their first lead of the game with 51 seconds to go in the first quarter after a five-play drive was capped off on a 26-yard pass to Jesiolowski that started a surge of offense from the Rangers. Just over two minutes later, the Rangers added to their lead, going up 21-10 on a three-yard run from Julius Pope, who finished the game with two touchdowns and 89 yards on 16 carries and would add another 12 yards on one reception. Northwest wasn’t done in the first half either. The Rangers took the ball down the field in their two-minute drill, marching 69-yards on eight plays to set up Jarvis Durr on a one-yard run to go into the half up 28-10. Both teams settled into the third quarter and neither side was able to change the score until Aiden Glover took one of his seven carries for a 45-yard touchdown run to open the fourth quarter scoring with 13:56 to go on the longest scoring play of the game. Glover would finish the night tied for the team high in rushing with 93 yards on just seven carries. The Rangers added one more score on their next drive when Glover picked up his second touchdown of the game on a 22-yard run to push the lead to 42-10 with 9:18 left. Pearl River did score one more time on their next possession, going eight plays with a 24 yard pass to Triplet to close the gap to 42-17. Northwest finished off the win with a six minute drive to milk the clock, running nine-plays, going 67 yards to ice the game and pick up their first win of the season. Fann led the Rangers in passing, throwing for 138 yards and one touchdown, completing 10 of his 14 attempts. Glover added 18 yards, completing his only pass, but his biggest contribution came on the ground with 93 yards on seven carries and two touchdowns. Also leading the ground game was Ja Keyes who had 93 yards on 17 carries. Durr also added 78 yards on 13 carries to go with his one touchdown. Leading the receiving game, Jesiolowski had two receptions for 44 yards followed closely by M.J. Johnson who had three receptions for 38 yards and Keon Hutchins who had two receptions for 30 yards. Johnathan Faulkner led the Rangers in tackles in the game with six, including four solo tackles. Dre Riley finished with a team high five solo tackles and Northwest saw Nate Walker pick up his first sack of the year as a part of his four tackles. The team combined for six tackles-for-loss in the game. As a team, the Rangers finished with 31 first downs, collecting 366 yards on 58 attempts on the ground and 156 totals yards in the air, going 11-15 with one touchdown and one interception. Northwest only punted the ball one time. Time of possession for the Rangers was 29:49, converting on 3 of 10 third down attempts and scoring on four of their six trips to the red zone. Hayden Wolfe did convert on all six of his PAT’s. The win snapped a two-year losing streak in openers for the Rangers.
JULIUS POPE scored a pair of touchdowns as the Rangers rolled to an opening win on the road at Pearl River Community College on Aug. 28 to kick off the season. The win snapped a two-game skid for NWCC in season opening games.

NWCC bounces back from opening loss with comeback over NEMCC
BOONEVILLE - It wasn’t easy but it was a successful road trip for the #7 Northwest Mississippi Community College football team (4-1, 2-1) as they took down Northeast Mississippi Community College (3-2, 1-2) 34-27 on the strength of 17 unanswered points in the second half keyed by timely turnovers and clutch offense in the fourth quarter. Early on, it seemed like Northwest was on their way to quick victory as they marched down the field on their first drive of the game on a 13-play, 5:19 minute drive to score a touchdown on a two-yard rush to put the Rangers up 7-0. Two plays later, Northeast gave six more points to the Rangers when Jeremiah Harrell threw a wild pass that ended up in the hands of Jovarious Lundy and the Rangers were up 14-0 in the blink of an eye with 8:51 left in the first quarter. The Tigers converted on the opportunity when a three-yard touchdown pass from Harrell found JT Beasley to close the gap to 14-6, although Northeast failed on the point after to keep it at an eight point lead for the Rangers. That gave the ball to the Tigers at their own 32 yard line, and in just six plays they quickly turned the field around when Harrell completed his second touchdown pass of the night, finding Qua Middlebrooks on back-to-back completions, including a 32-yard score that brought the home side within a point at 14-13 with 4:15 remaining. Northwest again took the ball down the field to put themselves in scoring position, going 66 yards but they had to settle for a 30-yard field goal from Wolfe. That left 1:47 on the clock and that was more than enough time for the Tigers to answer back. A good kickoff return gave Northeast the ball at the 49-yard line and, one play later, Middlebrooks and Harrell hooked up for a second time, this one going for 51 yards to give NEMCC their first lead of the game, heading into the halftime locker room up 20-17 with their first lead of the contest. The second half didn’t make things much easier for the Rangers at the start. The opening drive for Northwest stalled out and Wolfe’s punt was blocked by the Northeast special teams unit, who returned it for 25 yards and a 27-17 lead with 10:48 to go in the quarter. The Rangers made a quarterback change midway through the third quarter when Aidan Glover made his way out and sparked the longest drive in terms of plays for the Northwest offense on the night. Glover took them 14 plays and another 66-yards to the 24-yard line of Northeast and set up the second made field goal for Wolfe on the night, this time from 41-yards, to give the Rangers a boost on the sidelines going into the fourth quarter. With 11:49 to go, Northwest got the ball on the 20-yard line and Glover used his legs and the hands of Britten Traylor to march the ball to paydirt, finishing it off with a 16yard rush to give the Rangers a chance to tie the game up going into the final eight minutes. Wolfe’s PAT was off target, though, and the Tigers remained in front by a single point at 27-26. The Rangers were given one more chance on the next play as fate seemed to intervene again. Harrell kept the ball on a run to his right, and Jerry Wall III forced a fumble at the Tiger’s 31-yard line which was picked up by Jakwon Morris to give NWCC a third chance to take the lead. The Rangers would not squander another chance. Pope and Jarvis Durr took the load of the carries as the offensive line led the way on a seven-play 31-yard drive that was capped off with a Durr touchdown from 1-yard out with just nine seconds left on the clock to ice the game and give the Rangers the come-from-behind win, 34-27. Northwest was led by their two quarterbacks to a combined 24-45 night resulting in 309 yards through the air. Neko Fann threw the ball for 17 completions and 215 yards while Glover closed the game with seven completions for 94 yards, adding another 81 yards on the ground on 13 attempts to lead all rushers in the game for the Rangers. All three touchdowns for the Rangers came on the ground. They were spread evenly with Glover picking up one, Pope picking up one to go with 11 carries for 56 yards, and Durr getting the game winner as one of his 11 carries for 43 yards. Traylor dominated the receiving game, as he became the first Ranger to pull in 10 receptions since D.T. Sheffield had 11 receptions in 2021 against East Mississippi. Traylor ended the game with 133 yards, only 13 shy of the total receiving yards by Northeast in the game. Keon Hutchins added four receptions for 66 yards and Pope finished with three for 65 yards. Defensively, it was another balanced attack for Northwest with no Ranger tallying more than six tackles in the game. Marion Keyes and Rase Jones led the team with six. Myles Miller was one of two to record a sack as a part of his five tackle night and was joined in the backfield by Nate Walker who picked up the other sack in the game. The Rangers held Northeast to only 194 yards of total offense, limiting them to 146 through the air and just 48 on the ground on 25 carries. NWCC on the other hand was six yards shy of a 500 yard game with 494 yards on 91 plays, averaging 5.1 yards per play. Northwest finished the game going 9/21 on third down conversions and did pick up points on four of their five trips to the red zone. They also converted on their first two-point try of the year on a completion from Glover to Reed Jesiolowski which made it 34-27 after the final touchdown.
AIDEN GLOVER entered and was just what the doctor ordered as Northwest rallied from down 27-17 to avoid back-to-back losses, winning 34-27 over NEMCC.

RANGERS PUNCH TICKET TO POSTSEASON WITH 24-7 WIN OVER ITAWAMBA SENATOBIA – The #4 Northwest Mississippi Community College football team (8-1, 6-1) wrapped up the regular season at home with a 24-7 come from behind win over Itawamba Community College (5-4, 4-3) to clinch a share of the 2025 MACCC regular season title and punch a ticket to the Region 23 playoffs starting next week. On the offensive side, the Indians found traction first with their third drive of the game, opening with the ball on their own 14-yard line before driving the ball for the next 7:37 on 14 plays before an 11-yard pass from Deljay Bailey to Tavaris Coles opened the second quarter with the visitors on top 7-0 with 12:43 remaining in the game. Those would be the first and only points ICC would score in the game. Northwest got their own offense going three minutes later when they went to the air and Neko Fann was able to find the trio of Keon Hutchins, M.J. Johnson, and Reed Jesiolowski on passes on the way to a 56-yard drive to tie the game at seven, capped off with a four-yard completion to Jesiolowksi with 5:53 left. After getting the ball back, Itawamba took up the rest of the half on a drive of their own that stalled out at the 21-yard line, finishing with a 39-yard field attempt goal bouncing off of the right up-right, keeping the game level going into the locker rooms. The Ranger defense forced a three and out to open the third quarter and the offense immediately went to work. Fann found Jesiolowski for the longest play of the game, a 56-yard catch and run to the Indian’s 11-yard line that paid off when Hayden Wolfe booted a 21-yard field goal to give the Rangers their first lead of the game. Another three-and-out kept the ball in the hands of Northwest and this time it was the rushing game that took over for the home team, netting them four carries for 28 yards and opening the passing game for a 16-yard screen pass to Julius Pope for their second touchdown of the game to push the lead to double figures at 17-7 with 3:17 remaining. Special teams played another huge role in start of the next drive as a muffed kick return out of bounds set the Indians up inside of their own two-yard line, and after barely avoiding a safety, ICC was able to gain some traction but couldn’t get outside of their own 20-yard line before being forced into a punt. That allowed the Rangers to pick up at the Itawamba 44-yard line on their next possession, and it only took four played before Pope again was in the endzone, scurrying through traffic to take it 15-yards into the endzone for a game sealing touchdown with 12:34 to go, putting Northwest up 24-7. Itawamba did get one more opportunity to drive down the field, but their 13-play drive that started at the 20-yard line ended up fizzling out into a punt after they stalled at 4th and 25 thanks to a pair of sacks by the Rangers that finished off the chances for the Indians rally, and Northwest was able to kneel out the rest of the game on the way to an 8-1 finish to the regular season. After only netting 65 total yards of offense in the first half, the Rangers were able to pick up 230 by games end including 169 through the air on 12-20 passing from Fann who also added 18 yards on the ground. His favorite target was Jesiolowski who had three receptions for a season high 79 yards and a score. Hutchins had two receptions for 31 yards and Johnson also picked up a pair of catches for 22. Pope had the only other receiving touchdown for Northwest with 30 yards total in the game, and finished with a team high two scores with 49 total yards thanks to seven carries for 19 yards. Jarvis Durr added 24 yards on nine carries on a night when the Rangers struggled to get things going with only 61 cumulative yards on the ground. Defensively, Northwest was on the top of their game, limiting Itawamba to just 51 total yards in the second half, and picking up nine sacks in the game and 15 tackles for a loss for a total of 122 yards through four quarters. Jerry Wall III had a strong game which included 2.5 sacks for 22 yards on the way to total five tackles. Myles Miller also had 2.5 sacks for 13 yards and Charles Woodard led the team in tackles with seven, including 1.5 sacks. Chris Thomas also recorded a sack to go with a team high 3.5 tackles for a loss and forced a fumble, recovering it as well for the lone turnover of the game. Northwest clinched the second seed in the Region 23 postseason with the win after East Mississippi Community College held of Holmes Community College in a 50-39 thriller of their own to take the top seed from the North Division. In the south, Copiah-Lincoln Community College had already locked up their position in the top two and earned the top seed thanks to Mississippi Gulf Coast taking down Hinds Community College 31-10 in their ‘win and in’ game to close the season. Northwest will travel to CoLin next week on Saturday for the opening round with game time to be determined.
REED JESIOLOWSKI was a key in the final game of the regular season, pulling in three catches for 79 yards and a touchdown against Itawamba to help the Rangers secure a spot in the MACCC playoffs.

WALK OFF IN WESSON: RANGERS DOWN WOLVES IN MACCC SEMIS WESSON – Heart pounding doesn’t begin to describe the win that the #4 Northwest Mississippi Community College Rangers (9-1, 6-1) picked up on Saturday afternoon at H.L. Stone Stadium, rallying from down twice in the second half on a last minute touchdown to take down #5 Copiah-Lincoln Community College 28-27 and punch a ticket into the MACCC title game next Saturday. Northwest kicked off the game with a long drive to begin the scoring, taking the ball from their own 20-yard line and marching 80 yards on 15 plays, including going fivefor-five on third down conversions, capping it off on a 14-yard pass to M.J. Johnson in the corner of the endzone to go up 7-0. The Wolves marched down the field on their own time-consuming drive that left them at the 10-yard line. Eli Viniard, who had entered the game for Jaylen Pettway after he was hurt on a scramble, took a broken play and ran through the Ranger defense to tie the game at seven with 12:03 left in the half. A kickoff out of bounds set Northwest in prime position to go on a drive, and they did just that, marching down the field on a mix of passing and rushing, and it seemed like they took the ball into the endzone on a second score by Johnson when the red-shirt sophomore looked like the crossed the goal line, but the officials ruled that he fumbled the ball at the one-yard line and after it rolled out of the endzone, it was ruled a touchback for the Wolves. The defense held and after the touchback despite a 32-yard run out of the gate and forced another Co-Lin punt, and that is when the Rangers went deep into the play book to get back at the Wolves. A halfback pass from Pope to Johnson shook the Wolves defense, going 84 yards on one play to bring the lead back to seven and recapture any lost momentum after the previous drive. Unfortunately for Northwest, the Wolves had some answers and on their next drive went 67-yards on just six plays after a 47-yard pass from Pettway to Matt Mayfield set them up for a Boswell touchdown to tie it at 14 going into the half. Co-Lin received the opening kickoff of the second half with a chance to continue to stack momentum on their side and marched down the field behind a balance sequence of runs and passes to take their first lead with 10:45 to go in the third quarter after Pettway found Jermarj Bell for a touchdown from two yards out. As championship caliber teams are prone to do, it didn’t take long for Northwest to answer back. Pope took in a pass from Fann and after making a defender miss, had the sideline to himself as he outraced the Co-Lin safety to the endzone for a 35-yard touchdown, tying the game at 35 all. Both teams had three-and-outs on their next drives, but after being pinned at their own six, Northwest couldn’t help but give the ball back to Co-Lin in plus territory after punting it away, and a 15-yard return by Bell set up the Wolves at the Ranger 34. Two plays later, Bell struck again on a 35-yard reception for a go-ahead score. Co-Lin missed the extra point though, and the game went to the fourth quarter with the Wolves only ahead 27-21. More three-and-outs for Northwest on their next two drives made it seem like the clock was running out on their chances, and a third drive foundered at the Co-Lin 37-yard line with just under six minutes to go in the game and as the Rangers punted the ball away, all hope rested on the defense getting the ball back, but this has been a roster that has trusted in both sides of the ball all season long. The Ranger defense forced another three-and-out of their own to give the ball back to NWCC with 4:01 remaining and this time the Rangers were able to move the ball, once again going to the top target of the afternoon in Johnson, first on a fourth-and-seven where he drew a pass interference penalty to keep the drive going, and again on the ten-yard line where the made some magic with his third touchdown of the game on a bubble screen. It gave the Rangers a late 28-27 lead after the PAT from Hayden Wolfe, who was 4-4 on the day. There was still time for the Wolfpack to make a move of their own with 1:10 left in the game. The kickoff left them at their own 27-yard line and despite massive pressure from the Rangers defensive front, Pettway was able to make two wild plays to move the ball into striking distance, including a deep ball to Jordan Richardson with 11 seconds left to the seven-yard line where after an injury, the Co-Lin was forced to use their last timeout. Instead of attempting the field goal, the Wolves decided to run a play on first-and-goal, opting for the pass with no timeouts. A lob to the back corner of the endzone was picked off by Helps and Northwest was able to walk off the field victors in a classic. The Rangers had a great day throwing the ball, getting 319 yards through the air, with 84 of it coming from Pope on his lone passing attempt. Fann went 30-43 in the game for 235 yards and three touchdowns. Pope was his top target, pulling in 14 passes for a career best 121 yards and a score while also stacking up 65 yards on the ground through 12 carries to lead the rushing attack that had 103 yards on 21 carries as a team. Johnson also had a career day, picking up 163 yards on nine receptions and a career best three touchdowns, which gives him six on the season. He joined Keon Hutchins in the feat of three scores in one game. On the defensive side of the ball, Northwest compiled three sacks in the game and five tackles for a loss. The interception by Helps was the only turnover of the game forced by the Rangers defense. Dre Riley led the defense in tackles with eight in the game, including four solo tackles and Marion Keyes had five solos on his way to seven tackles in the game. Jerry Wall III, Rase Jones, and Nate Walker all had five. The win moves the Rangers into the MACCC and Region 23 championship game which they will host after #7 Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College ran away from #9 East Mississippi Community College in the second half of the other semifinal on the way to a 45-24 win.

2025 REVIEW BACK-TO-BACK: NWCC DEFEATS GULF COAST IN DEFENSIVE THRILLER AT HOME SENATOBIA – Special teams and defense were the difference on Saturday afternoon in the MACCC championship as the #4 Northwest Mississippi Community College football team clinched their second consecutive MACCC Championship with a 16-13 win over #5 Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College at Bobby Franklin Field. Early on, it was the Rangers’ passing game that got things going. After the opening drive for the Bulldogs fizzled out at their own 31-yard line, Northwest took over at their own 33 and proceeded to use their short passing game to move into the edge of field goal range nine plays later. Hayden Wolfe would be called on to attempt a 51-yarder, and the sophomore placed his line drive attempt straight through the uprights to give the Rangers the opening lead with 10:07 left in the first quarter. Gulf Coast took their second drive and answered with an 11-play drive that took them all the way to the threeyard line, but the Ranger defense stood tall at the goal line in what would be a theme on the day in short yardage situations, stopping them on both third and fourth down with only a yard to go. The Rangers’ ensuing drive would only get to the 19-yard line after only one first down, and the punt would be blocked by the Gulf Coast pressure to set them up at the seven. It took just one play for them to capitalize on a pass from Landon Barnes to Owen Colpaert to give them a 7-3 lead with 2:46 left in the first quarter. Northwest made sure the lead wouldn’t stay with Gulf Coast long. A 12-play drive had the Rangers marching into the second quarter and into Bulldogs side of the field, covering nearly five minutes of clock time and it was capped by Quincy Phillips Jr’s first touchdown of the season, reeling in a pass from Neko Fann to give a 10-7 lead back to the Rangers with 12:55 to go in the half. After the Bulldogs kicked the ball out of bounds to open the final 30 minutes, Northwest put the keys in the ignition and went for the longest drive of the game, marching 54 yards on 14 plays, taking up nearly eight minutes of game time to get to the Gulf Coast 11-yard line. They were forced to settle for a 28-yard field goal from Wolfe that pushed the lead to 13-7 with 7:11 to go in the third. The next Northwest drive didn’t result in anything but a three-and-out and the Rangers were forced to punt, only getting the ball to midfield, and in a drive that extended into the fourth quarter, Gulf Coast was able to go 10 plays on the way to their second touchdown of the game, this time on a double reverse that saw Henderson cross the goal line with 14:18 to go in the game. After a personal foul pushed the point after to the 18-yard line, the Rangers were able to block the kick and keep the game tied at 13. Both teams traded punts on their next drives and with just under six minutes left, Northwest was able to get to the Gulf Coast 30-yard where they trotted out Wolfe for his third attempt of the game and the sophomore came through again with a 47-yard make to give the Rangers the lead for the third time in the game at 16-13. Gulf Coast had a chance on the heels of their next drive to tie the game when they got the ball to the Ranger 21 yard line but Northwest held them on third and three to force a 38-yard attempt that was missed wide to the left by Aiden Guinn to keep the Rangers lead intact with just 2:27 to go. It was a balance attack for Northwest, totaling 313 yards of offense behind 191 through the air by Neko Fann who finished 18-30 with one touchdown and one interception. Keon Hutchins led the team in passing with 50 yards on five receptions with Durr just behind, pulling in four passes for 45 yards. Durr added another 65 yards on the ground for 110 total yards in the game. Britten Traylor came back from a game against Co-Lin that saw him get zero receptions with three for 44 yards and M.J. Johnson had three as well for 26 yards. Ja Keyes was the second leading rusher in the game for Northwest with 10 carries for 37 yards and Julius Pope closed out the top running backs with seven carries for 26 yards, although he missed most of the second half with an injury. Defensively, it was Rase Jones who led Northwest in tackles, tallying five solos on his way to seven total takedowns. T.J. Span and Chris Thomas both had six tackles including one for.a loss from Thomas. Six other Rangers had four tackles each. Keyes and Helps interceptions were the only turnovers in the game for Northwest.

2025 REVIEW
NORTHWEST LANDS 18 FIRST TEAM ALL-MACCC NORTH DIVISION SELECTIONS SENATOBIA – A stellar year for the #4 Northwest Mississippi Community College football team continued on Wednesday with the release of the All-MACCC North Division awards and Northwest was a common sight among the recipients with 18 players earning a spot on the list along with Jalen Thomas picking up the Defensive Player of the Year honor. Thomas also was named to the First Team All-MACCC North Division and was a force to be reckoned with on the defensive line as the sophomore nose tackle from Memphis, Tennessee accounted for 18 total tackles and 2.5 tackles for a loss. He added a half sack and had a hit on the quarterback. His best game came in the come-from-behind win over Northeast Mississippi Community College where he had five tackles, but he was a steady rock in every game as a multi-gap nose tackle that allowed for linebackers and blitzers to have open lanes to the back field, helping the defense to the top spot in the nation in terms of rushing yards allowed, only giving up 50.4 yards per game this season while totaling 33 sacks to go with it.

Thomas was one of five defenders who earned first team nods and was joined by fellow nose tackle T.J. Spann, linebacker Jerry Wall III, and defensive backs Dre Riley and Jakwon Morris. Wall had some of the most impressive tackling numbers on the team this season, finishing just three shy of Rase Jones for the team lead with 51, including 26 solo tackles and had 4.5 sacks on his way to six tackles for loss. He was a three-position player for the Rangers, spending time as an extra blitzer on the line, and playing as an extra defensive back. He had three pass breakups on the year and also had a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. Morris was also a team leader in solo tackles with 25 on the season which was fourth on the roster. He was known as a lockdown corner for the Rangers and had seven pass breakups as a result and picked up a fumble recovery too. Morris was aggressive and he used that to total 2.5 tackles for a loss when he would come up to help defend the run. Riley wasn’t far behind Morris in the solo tackles category. The hard-hitting safety for the Rangers finished with 38 tackles on the year with 23 of them recorded as solo tackles and was key in making sure that the second level was where running backs were stopped when they broke through, making several touchdown saving tackles during the Rangers postseason run to a MACCC championship. He also picked up three tackles for a loss and had a fumble recovery on the year. Closing out the first team on defense was Spann, who much like Thomas was a two-gap nose tackle for the Rangers, finishing the year with 25 tackles and seven solo’s. He registered one sack on the season on the way to 1.5 TFL’s, and added a rare pass breakup for a defensive lineman. Northwest also fared very well on the offensive side of the ball, getting four first team awards, powered by the offensive line where Jordan Knox and Reginhard Pierre-Nau led the way. Joining them were tight end Reed Jesiolowski and wide receiver Keon Hutchins. Hutchins was an eye turner for the Rangers as a receiver this season, having his breakout performance against Southwest Mississippi where he had 219 yards and three touchdowns in the first half on five receptions. The sophomore from Union had six games where he totaled more than 50 yards, including the MACCC championship and finished the year with 635 yards and six touchdowns on 34 receptions.

2025 REVIEW Jesiolowski was also big for Northwest this season, seeing his opportunities really grow as the year went on. He finished the season with 348 yards and four touchdowns and was a fourth weapon in the passing game to take pressure off of the receivers as a mismatch in the middle of the field. His biggest game came in a win or go home showing against Itawamba Community College where he had 79 yards and the opening touchdown for Northwest to help them earn a spot in the postseason. The Rangers’ final first team award went to the special teams where Hayden Wolfe took home the honor. The sophomore kicker and punter was a reliable option for them all season long, finishing the year going 12-17 in kicks with a long of 51 yards on his only attempt from 50-plus all season long. He was 8-10 from kicks inside of 39 yards and went 4-7 on kicks from beyond 40. Kicking and punting were also strong suites for the Ranger from Clinton, who finished with 42 punts, placing 20 of them inside of the 20-yard line and only having five touch-backs. He averaged 38.74 yards per punt and had a long of 61 yards and two that were above 50 yards on the season. Kickoffs were also a strong suit, where none of them were returned for touchdowns and ten of them were touch-backs, averaging 60.8 yards per kickoff. Northwest saw another six players added to the All-MACCC North Division second team, with four from the offense including quarterback Neko Fann, running back Julius Pope, and offensive lineman Amari Smith and Tanner Welch. Defensively they also added linebacker Elliot Helps and defensive back Marion Keyes. Fann ended up winning the quarterback battle for the Rangers midway through the season and finished the year with 2061 yards throwing the ball with 20 touchdowns and four interceptions, completing nearly 65 percent of his passes and averaging 187 yards per game. He had a quarterback rating of 157 on the year to go with it, throwing for three or more touchdowns four times including a three-touchdown game against Copiah-Lincoln Community College in the MACCC semifinals. Also with a passing touchdown in that semifinal game was Pope, who threw for his only touchdown of the year in that game. Pope, who won NJCAA Offensive Player of the Week after that game, finished the season with 729 rushing yards and eight touchdowns, averaging 6.1 yards per carry on 120 attempts. He also was the fourth leading receiver on the team during the season with 355 yards in the air and three touchdowns on 32 receptions. On the defensive side, Keyes was another do-it-all player for the Rangers. He was third on the team in tackles with 46 and was second in solo tackles with 29 as a defensive back. He added an interception in the MACCC championship game and had three pass breakups to close out the season. Helps was one of the steadier players the Rangers had on the year, finishing the season with 38 tackles but his biggest moments came in pass defense, with two interceptions to lead the team in that category, both of which came at crucial moments in the postseason. He added a forced fumble and a fumble recovery and had six tackles for a loss during the season. The Northwest defense added two more names as honorable mentions to the MACCC North Division list with Charles Woodard and Chris Thomas rounding out the 18 players to make the teams. Woodard presented a consistent threat as an edge rusher for the Rangers, and it showed with 3.5 sacks on the year and 6.5 TFL’s. he added 11 solo tackles on his way to 25 total during the year. Behind him in position but ahead of him in tackles was Thomas, who had 39 tackles on the season as a linebacker for Northwest, including 18 solo take downs. Thomas was also big in the fumble game, forcing one and recovering two on the season. Keep an eye out for the All-Region 23 postseason list to come out in the coming weeks, as well as potential All-NJCAA winners for the Rangers. News on where and when the Rangers will be playing in their national semifinal game on the weekend of December 6th is also set to be released as the rest of the seasons across the country come to a close.

2025 REVIEW NORTHWEST EARNS FIVE NJCAA ALL-AMERICANS JACKSON – The final awards are out from the NJCAA and the Northwest Mississippi Community College football team picked up five All-Americans, led by First Team selection Hayden Wolfe. Joining him on the list as Second Team selections are Reed Jesiolowski and Honorable Mentions Keon Hutchins, Jaylen Thomas, and Jerry Wall III. Wolfe was standout as a kicker for the Rangers, finishing the year going 12-17 in kicks with a long of 51 yards on his only attempt from 50-plus all season long. He was 8-10 from kicks inside of 39 yards and went 4-7 on kicks from beyond 40. Jesiolowski was another steady option for the Rangers, playing as a wide receiver and a tight end, he finished the season with 348 yards and four touchdowns and was a fourth weapon in the passing game to take pressure off of the receivers as a mismatch in the middle of the field. Hutchins had six games where he totaled more than 50 yards, including the MACCC championship and finished the year with 635 yards and six touchdowns on 34 receptions. The defense was a strong feature for the Rangers all year long, and the balance may have hurt the final listings for them. Thomas was the MACCC North Player of the Year and Jerry Wall III was the best player for the Rangers in the national title game. The last time the Rangers had five or more All-Americans was 2022, and it has only happened six times in program history.
HAYDEN WOLFE became the first kicker for Northwest to earn a First Team All-American spot since LES BINKLEY in 1998.
NORTHWEST ENDS SEASON AT NO. 4 IN FINAL NJCAA RANKINGS CHARLOTTE – Northwest wrapped up the season for the second straight year as the #4 team in the country in the final NJCAA polls. This is the tenth time in the last 11 seasons that the Rangers have ended the year with a national ranking, dating back to the conclusion of the 2015 season. No MACCC teams were ranked in the NJCAA polls during the 2020 COVID-19 season, due to the conference being the only NJCAA members to participate in a traditional fall season. Northwest finished the season with a 10-2 overall record, capturing a conference title for the second consective year. Iowa Western earned the No. 1 spot as the 2025 NJCAA National Champions, while national runners-up Hutchinson (Kansas) finished at No. 2 overall. Tyler Junior College (TX) and Georgia Millitary College rounded out the top five, checking in at No. 3 and No. 5, respectively. Elsewhere in the MACCC, Mississippi Gulf Coast finished sixth after finished the season as the MACCC runner up. Copiah-Lincoln wrapped up the year in the eighth spot with East Mississippi and Hinds rounding out the final two places at 12 and 14 respectively. Since 2015, Northwest has achieved final national rankings of No. 1 (2015), No. 6 (2016, 2019), No. 7 (2017-18), No. 4 (2021, 2024), No. 3 (2022) and No. 13 (2023). In that time-span, the Rangers have captured two national titles (2015, 2020), five conference championships (2015, 2020, 2021, 2024, 2025) and six division crowns (2015, 2017, 2019, 2020, 2022, 2024). Northwest has also made seven appearances in NJCAA affiliated bowl games or playoff games since 2015, including four trips to the NJCAA Division I Football Playoffs over the past five seasons. Since Benjy Parker took over the head coaching reins in 2016, the Rangers have compiled a 85-23 overall record and a .787 winning percentage. Parker has further cemented his spot as the Rangers’ second winningest coach, trailing only Bobby Franklin’s 201 victories that were collected over a span from 19812004.

BOWL HISTORY December 4, 1965 • State Fair Stadium • Shreveport, La.
KILGORE COLLEGE NORTHWEST
21 20
The 1965 Shrine Bowl will always be a historic moment woven into the fabric of Northwest football. The game marked the Rangers’ first-ever bowl appearance and despite the close loss to Texasbased Kilgore College, the postseason contest marked the beginning of what has become a lenghty postseason history for Northwest. Played on a Saturday night in early December, the first half was a sloppy one for both teams, with fumbles credited to both teams and “a battle of punts”, as described by the 1966 edition of the Rocketeer. Only two points were scored in the first half, thanks to a safety from Kilgore. However, Northwest came out with a vengeance in the second half, as Bob Whitwell scored the Rangers’ first touchdown in the third quarter. Later in the same quarter, Marvin Earnheart’s four-yard touchdown run helped make it a 13-2 lead. Kilgore scored yet again to close the gap, before Northwest responded with a 39-yard touchdown pass from Whitwell to Rickey Patrick. The celebration was short-lived however, as Kilgore’s Johnny Johnson returned the ensuing kickoff for 88 yards, trimming the Rangers’ lead to 20-15 with 2:41 left in the fourth quarter. With very little time remaining in the contest, Kilgore quarterback Terry Reisig hit Richard Mooney on the game-winning touchdown pass. Despite the loss, Northwest did not leave empty-handed. Patrick was chosen as the game’s Most Valuable Lineman, recovering two fumbles on the defensive side of the ball. He also played offense, catching three passes for 38 yards.
Team captains for Northwest and Kilgore College meet at midfield for the coin toss of the 1965 Shrine Bowl. The Rangers were held scoreless in the first half, but roared back to make the game close in the second half.
Other outstanding players in the game for Northwest included Earnheart, who finished with 11 carries for 69 yards. Whitwell completed four of his seven pass attempts for 67 yards and a touchdown. Northwest also celebrated numerous festivities as part of the bowl weekend. The Rangers were housed at the local Holiday Inn and were treated to a steak dinner by the Scottish Temple. Additionally, the players attended a basketball game and made a visit to the Shrine Hospital.

NORTHWEST FERRUM COLLEGE

Not only was the 1982 Eastern Bowl just the second bowl game ever for Northwest - it also marked the program’s first-ever national championship. Although both offenses struggled throughout the contest, the Rangers picked up the pace in the second quarter, as kicker Keith Stribling shook off an earlier miss in the first quarter to hit a 22-yard field goal attempt early in the second, giving the Rangers a quick lead. After Ferrum College failed to get any momentum on its next drive, Stribling hit yet another field goal, this time from 23 yards out. Later in the first half, Northwest quarterback Mark Robbins scored the game’s first touchdown on a five-yard keeper, followed by a successful two-point conversion run. On the last play of the second quarter, Ferrum completed a 17-yard touchdown pass, trimming the deficit to 14-7 at halftime. Although Stribling would miss another field goal attempt in the third quarter, Northwest maintained its lead and used a safety from Bobby Gaston early in the fourth to take a 16-7 advantage. Late in the contest, the Rangers voluntarily sacrificed a safety on a long fourth down, giving Ferrum its final two points of the game. By doing that, Northwest was able to keep the Panthers from having a legitimate chance for a final downfield drive, preserving the school’s first-ever undefeated season. “It’s a dream come true,” Northwest coach Bobby Franklin said after the game. “We hoped at the beginning of the season to win the (MACJC) championship, but we never dreamed of coming this far.” This marked the first of two national championships for Franklin, but more importantly, helped mark a major milestone in the future NJCAA Hall of Fame coach. For his efforts in leading Northwest to a 12-0-1 record, Franklin received Coach of the Year honors from both the MACJC and NJCAA.
Northwest celebrates with the NJCAA Championship trophy following a 16-9 win against Ferrum College. The 1982 Eastern Bowl victory served as the Rangers’ first national title and one of two national championships for all-time winningest coach BOBBY FRANKLIN.
Additionally, several members of the 1982 squad went on to have successful college careers at four-year programs. One of those was Henry “Gizmo” Williams, who posted a Hall of Fame career with the Canadian Football League’s Edmonton Eskimos, later earning inductions to the Northwest Sports Hall of Fame, Mississippi Community College Sports Hall of Fame and the NJCAA Hall of Fame.

NORTHWEST RANGER COLLEGE

Not much is known about the 1986 Roaring Ranger Bowl. A quick Google search does not reveal any stats, pictures or much evidence that the game even existed. A passing mention in the 1987 edition of the Rocketeer is the only known evidence of the contest. However, the game was unique in several different ways. Not only did Northwest take on another team bearing the name of its own mascot, but the game was the first and only bowl game to end in a tie for Northwest. For Northwest, it was the program’s first appearance in a bowl game since winning the 1982 NJCAA Championship and just the third bowl bid all-time for the Rangers. Northwest also finished the season with a final ranking of 11th by the NJCAA.

COFFEYVILLE NORTHWEST

For the second time in as many seasons, Northwest once again played a bowl game on another team’s home field, traveling to Coffeyville, Kan. for the 1987 Jayhawk Bowl. Despite the obvious disadvantage, the Rangers went toe-to-toe with the Red Ravens, leading for most of the first half. Late in the first quarter, Northwest struck first on the scoreboard, thanks to a 31-yard touchdown pass from Bobby Byrd to Charles Biggens. Kevin Bolen followed with a successful PAT kick, giving the Rangers the 7-0 lead. Defense played a pivotal role for Northwest in the first half, as the Rangers managed to recover three Coffeyville fumbles. The third fumble recovery also helped set up the next scoring drive for Northwest, as back-to-back receptions from Wesley Carroll paved the way for a short rushing score from Mike Crenshaw. Once again. Bolen knocked through the PAT, stretching the Rangers’ lead to 14-0. However, Coffeyville quickly switched gears on its next possession, marching downfield for its first touchdown of the contest. The Red Ravens would add another touchdown and a field goal before the end of the first half, sending Northwest into the locker rooms down 15-14. Though Ricky Blake’s touchdown run helped the Rangers retake the lead in the third quarter, Coffeyville added two more scores in the fourth quarter, making the ultimate difference in the 29-21 loss for Northwest. The loss marked the end of the season for one of the most star-studded Northwest teams of all-time. Blake eventually turned pro and spent the 1991 season with the Dallas Cowboys as a free agent, while also spending time in the Canadian Football League and the World League of American Football (later NFL Europe). Defensive lineman Cortez Kennedy continued his college career at the University of Miami, before becoming an NFL Hall of Famer with the Seattle Seahawks.

NORTHWEST KILGORE COLLEGE
31 27
The 1989 Shrine Bowl featured a familiar opponent for Northwest. In its first-ever bowl appearance in 1965, Northwest faced off against Kilgore College in a battle of Rangers, with the opponents coming away victorious. This time, the script was flipped, as Northwest emerged with the narrow win in the Lone Star State. A short touchdown run from Tony Harris and a 27-yard field goal from Claude Locke helped push Northwest to a 10-0 lead in the opening quarter. The momentum seemingly continued into the second quarter, as a blocked punt was returned for a 15-yard touchdown from Joel Gallagher, extending the Rangers’ advantage to 17-0. However, things quickly began to bounce in Kilgore’s favor, as a 33-yard touchdown sprint from Darrell Ridge sparked a 21-point swing for the other Rangers. On its next possession, Kilgore cut the deficit to 17-14 with Joe Volentine’s 13-yard pass to Ed Lewis with 57 seconds remaining in the first half. Just as it seemed that Northwest would at least take a three-point lead into halftime, Kilgore’s defense gained a huge opportunity, as the Rangers’ kick return was bobbled and recovered at the 16-yard line. The short field helped Kilgore score quickly, as Volentine and Lewis connected again on a 16-yard pass, sending Northwest to the locker rooms down 21-17. Kilgore opened the second half by steamrolling its way deep into Ranger territory, only for the Northwest defense to hold the opposition to a pair of field goals. Trailing 27-17, the Rangers fumbled away the football, seemingly giving Kilgore another chance to bury Northwest. However, the tide began to turn back in favor of Northwest after that, as Kilgore missed a 49yard field goal attempt. As the fourth quarter began, a 16-yard touchdown run from Raymond Barksdale helped the Rangers pull back to a 27-24 deficit. After the Northwest defense stifled Kilgore on the next possession, Barksdale put the Rangers ahead for good with a 38-yard scoring run with 4:33 remaining.
Northwest was all smiles following a 31-27 victory against Kilgore College in the 1989 Shrine Bowl. The game marked the first rematch for the two teams since the 1965 Shrine Bowl, where Kilgore defeated the Rangers.
Both teams finished near even in total rushing yards, with Kilgore finishing with a 207-202 edge. Kilgore also passed for 117 yards, compared to just 33 from Northwest, and the Rangers fumbled the ball five times.

Competing for its second national championship in nine years, Northwest faced a tough Northeastern Oklahoma A&M squad in the 1991 Coca-Cola Mid-America Bowl in Tulsa. A 21-point third quarter didn’t do the Rangers any favors, as NEO pulled away for a 49-14 lead in the second half. Northwest committed five turnovers in the loss, while the Golden Norseman only coughed up the football once. Northeastern Oklahoma A&M also racked up 360 yards of total offense, including 141 rushing yards. In comparison, Northwest totaled 294 yards, with 223 of those coming through the air. The Golden Norsemen wasted little time in getting on the board, when they put the ball in the end zone after an 80-yard, nine-play drive. Running back Gary Young’s seven-yard run came with 8:27 to play in the first period. Brian Whitlow added the PAT for the 70 NEO lead. Northwest returned the favor on their opening series, with a 60-yard, eight-play drive, capped off by a 14-yard touchdown pass from Russell Evans to Trafton Trotter with 5:23 left in the first quarter. Though Northwest denied NEO from scoring on its next offensive series, an interception by Carl Kidd was returned 94 yards the other way, helping put the Golden Norsemen ahead, 14-7. In the second quarter, Northwest fought back and tied the score when Evans hit receiver Eric Smith on a 43-yard scoring pass. Lonny Calicchio’s PAT evened the score at 14-14, only for NEO to add two quick touchdowns before the end of the first half. One of those was a 41-yard pass. The Golden Norsemen added three quick touchdowns in the third quarter that all but ended the Rangers’ dreams of a national title, as NEO stretched its lead to 49-14. Northwest inched slightly closer in the fourth quarter with a three-yard touchdown pass to Roell Preston, but that was all the Rangers could muster down the stretch.

Revenge was on the minds of Northwest in the 1992 Coca-Cola Mid-America Bowl. One season removed from falling to Northeastern Oklahoma A&M in their quest for a second national title, the Rangers were right back in Tulsa a year later, facing the Golden Norsemen with a national championship on the line once again. Despite the sub-freezing temperatures and a constant barrage of sleet and snow, Northwest played one of its best games of the season. The Rangers got hot early, as the defense stuffed NEO on its first possession of the day. After the Golden Norsemen attempted to punt on fourth down, Lonnie Ollie broke through the line and blocked the punt, which was recovered and returned by Darryl Rudd for the Rangers’ first touchdown. Lonny Calicchio would miss the ensuing PAT, but the sophomore kicker made the rest of his four attempts later in the game. Later in the first quarter, Lavelle Danzy upped the score to 13-0 on a two-yard plunge into the end zone. Calicchio followed with the PAT, stretching the Rangers’ lead to 14-0. In the second quarter, the Northwest receivers got in on the scoring action, as Russell Evans hit future NFL veteran Roell Preston on a screen pass that resulted in a 56-yard score. The Rangers went into halftime with a 20-0 lead. NEO had only allowed one second half touchdown during the regular season, but the Golden Norsemen gave up two Northwest scores in the second half, helping the Rangers seal the victory. The first came off an eight-play, 69-yard drive that ended with an eight-yard touchdown pass from Evans to James Tyson. Northwest scored one final time in the fourth quarter, as Danzy hit the end zone for the second time on a 24-yard carry, sealing the Rangers’ second national title.

Northwest collected 336 yards of total offense, compared to 310 yards from NEO. Evans was voted as the Offensive Player of the Game, completing 13 of his 40 pass attempts for 236 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Vandell Grigsby took home Defensive Player of the Game honors for his four interceptions. “Not many teams get a second chance to win it all like we did,” coach Bobby Franklin said. “This is a very special team and they deserve all the attention they receive.”

MIDDLE GEORGIA COLLEGE NORTHWEST

A first quarter field goal from Les Binkley was one of the few highlights for Northwest in the 1998 Mineral Water Bowl, as Middle Georgia College scored 41 unanswered points to defeat the Rangers. The loss was the worst in three seasons for Northwest and remains the worst bowl game loss in history for the Rangers. Northwest fell victim to seven turnovers in the loss, four of which occurred in the first half. The Rangers were also whistled for 12 penalties for a loss of 115 yards. Northwest started the scoring when Shaddrick Carter intercepted his eighth pass of the season, returning the ball to the Middle Georgia 48-yard line. A few plays later, the Rangers were forced to settle for a 36-yard field goal from Binkley with 9:56 left in the first quarter. Middle Georgia then erupted for 27 unanswered points over the next 24 minutes, claiming a 27-3 lead at halftime. The Warriors got started with an interception from Dushon Martin, which set up a Rico Martin touchdown four plays later. After a blocked punt gave Middle Georgia favorable field position, Martin once again lept across the goal line, fumbling the ball into the end zone. However, Iniko Simpson was right there to recover the ball for the Warriors, preserving the touchdown. Kicker Casey Sirmons then made things go from bad to worse for Northwest, hitting a pair of bowl-record 48-yard field goals, pushing the deficit to 20-3. Middle Georgia’s final three scores of the game came in the form of a 19-yard pass, 27-yard punt return and a 41-yard dash. Northwest amassed 237 yards of total offense, while Middle Georgia accounted for 410 yards. The Warriors’ defense set an NJCAA record that season, allowing an average of only 72 yards per contest. Northwest defensive end Colston Weatherington was named the Defensive Player of the Game, recording three sacks, four tackles-for-loss and six quarterback hurries. Receiver Orlando Dunn also set a bowl record with 10 catches.
DEE MILLER returns a kickoff for Northwest in the 1998 Mineral Water Bowl. Miller finished his Ranger career as a Second Team NJCAA All-American selection.
“We lacked focus today,” said Northwest coach Bobby Franklin. “You can’t make as many mistakes as we did against a good team like Middle Georgia and expect to win.” This was also the final bowl appearance for Franklin, who remains the Rangers’ all-time winningest coach with over 200 career victories.

Only five players on the 2012 Northwest football roster had been born the last time the Rangers won a bowl game. That all changed on December 1, 2012, when Northwest piled up 508 yards of total offense, winning the inaugural Brazos Valley Bowl by a 47-36 final at Texas A&M’s Kyle Field. Playing in front of 4,138 fans at the largest NJCAA bowl venue in the nation, Northwest put its foot on the pedal and never looked back. Quarterback Domonique Harris weaved his way in and out of pressure all afternoon, completing 19 of 23 passes for 252 yards and three touchdowns. Kilgore’s lone score of the first half came on a 76-yard punt return from James Jones, but the Rangers outgained their opponents 299-53 in total yards by halftime. Northwest was aided by a 21-point second quarter, which gave the Rangers a 30-7 halftime advantage. Though Kilgore made adjustments for the second half and outscored Northwest 20-10 in the third quarter, the Rangers never squandered the lead. The teams exchanged touchdowns in the first five minutes of the third quarter, as Kilgore’s Ed’Marques Batties caught a 38-yard pass from Emory Miller on a flea flicker, while Harris hit Cedrick Jackson from 34 yards out. Kilgore’s freshman quarterback Tanner Tausch took over the rest of the way, completing 28 of 53 passes for 357 yards and a pair of touchdowns, including a five-yard pass to Steven Borden that cut the Rangers’ lead to 37-20 midway through the third quarter. Chase Carpenter gave Northwest some breathing room with a 21-yard field goal, before Kilgore’s Courtland Smith scored a short touchdown, trimming the gap to 40-27 entering the fourth quarter.
Northwest tailback PERCY O’BANNON scored a pair of touchdowns to help the Rangers to a 47-36 victory against Kilgore College in the 2012 Brazos Valley Bowl. Fellow tailback Damian Baker led the team with 178 yards on 22 carries.
After a 33-yard field goal from Yovany Arvizu cut the lead to 10 points, Percy O’Bannon picked up his second touchdown with 3:09 left to put the icing on the cake for Northwest. Damian Baker led Northwest with 178 rushing yards on 22 carries, while Harris was chosen as the game’s MVP. Jerome McClain garnered Defensive MVP honors, totaling five tackles and a sack, while Aaron Thompson finished with a team-leading 10 tackles.

The 2015 edition of the Mississippi Bowl went to Northwest in dominant fashion, as the top-ranked Rangers routed Rochester Career & Technical College by a 66-13 final, clinching the program’s third national championship. Completing 23 of 30 passes on the day, quarterback Gardner Minshew led the offensive onslaught from Northwest. The Brandon, Mississippi product threw for 421 yards and five touchdowns in the victory, compiling 302 yards and three scores in the first half alone. Minshew’s performance was recognized with the Mississippi Bowl Player of the Year award. Complimenting Minshew’s aerial assault was Rangers sophomore running back Justin Crawford who enjoyed a prolific day on the ground. Scoring a 58-yard touchdown run on the first play from scrimmage, Crawford led all ball carriers with 144 yards rushing on 15 carries – averaging 9.6 yards per attempt. The Columbus, Ga. native scored two rushing touchdowns and added two receptions for 46 yards in the victory. The Rangers’ receiving corps were led by sophomore Jacob McCrary, who hauled in seven catches for 150 yards and two touchdowns. Northwest freshman wide receiver Alex Norwood caught two touchdown passes as well, totaling three receptions for 49 yards. Norwood’s fellow freshman wideouts, KyKy Austin and Titus Ivory, each added a touchdown reception to the performance. Northwest accumulated 680 yards offensively – 486 passing and 194 rushing – and were forced into just one punt in the game. Their offensive efficiency was on display all afternoon as they racked up 27 first downs. Defensively, the Rangers were led by a game-high seven tackles from sophomore linebacker Malik Hawkins. Freshman defensive lineman Quondarius Qualls tallied two tackles-for-loss, while freshman defensive back Wesley Bush forced Rochester’s lone turnover with an interception in the fourth quarter.

Northwest held one of the nation’s top offenses to 367 total yards and its second-lowest point total of the season, but it wasn’t enough as Trinity Valley outlasted the Rangers in the 2016 C.H.A.M.P.S. Heart of Texas Bowl. Northwest, playing in its third bowl game in five seasons, ended the 2016 season with a 9-3 overall record, while the Cardinals won their ninth straight game and closed the year with an 11-1 mark. Trinity Valley took an early lead, thanks to a couple early blunders on special teams. Drake McCarter’s punt was blocked by Jaylen Brown at the four-yard line, and was recovered in the end zone for a touchdown. His next punt traveled only seven yards before hitting a Northwest teammate, which led to Caden Novikoff’s 44-yard field goal and a 10-0 advantage. After three straight empty-handed possessions to start the game, the Rangers finally got going with a long 14-play, 93-yard drive that spanned nearly seven minutes. Tywun Walters punched in a short touchdown run from a yard out, putting Northwest on the board with 2:03 left in the first quarter. Northwest rallied to tie the game at 10-10 with 2:14 left in the seond quarter, as McCarter hit a 39-yard field goal. However, the turning point of the game would come soon thereafter, as the Cardinals drove 65 yards downfield just before the half, scoring a touchdown for a 17-10 lead. In the second half, Trinity Valley scored touchdowns on back-to-back possessions, stretching its lead to 31-10 with 3:39 left in the third quarter. Needing a spark, Northwest swapped quarterbacks, but 75-yard drive was halted in the red zone, as the Cardinals picked off Cam Bowman’s pass. The Rangers’ defense made several key stops to try and give the offense a chance, and another score from Walters early in the fourth quarter closed the gap to 31-17.
FRED GARTH, JR. wraps up a Trinity Valley tailback in the 2016 C.H.A.M.P.S. Heart of Texas Bowl. The second consecutive bowl appearance for Northwest did not end in a victory, as the Rangers were blanked 14-0 in the third quarter.
One play later, a bad snap on Trinity Valley’s next possession was recovered by Mike McGhee and returned to the red zone. Bowman then hit Jerrick Orr on a touchdown pass, pulling the Rangers back within 31-24. With four minutes left, Northwest moved the ball near midfield before three straight incompletions forced a turnover on downs. Trinity Valley then burned the clock, kicking a field goal with 13 seconds left to ice the game.

IOWA WESTERN NORTHWEST
36 19
After earning a bid to its third straight bowl game, Northwest allowed 17 unanswered points in the first half and never fully recovered, falling 36-19 to Iowa Western in the 2017 Graphic Edge Bowl. Northwest scored on its first two possessions to take a 10-0 lead with 3:22 remaining in the first quarter, a stretch that included a nine-play, 99-yard scoring drive that culminated with Jack Abraham’s 11-yard touchdown pass to JaVonta Payton. Iowa Western responded with an 11-play, 62-yard scoring drive that cut the deficit to 10-7 at the end of the opening quarter. A lucky break turned the tide for the Reivers, as Iowa Western fumbled the ball on a third and long situation, but the officials ruled Kai Locksley down instead. That call allowed the Reivers to score just five plays later, setting in motion the stretch of 17 unanswered points. With 1:12 remaining in the second quarter, Iowa Western took the lead for good, thanks to a five-yard touchdown pass from Locksley to Vincent Perry. The score made it a 17-10 lead in favor of the Reivers. Northwest had one final chance to score before halftime and Drake McCarter seemingly hit a 38-yard field goal, but Iowa Western called timeout to wipe the score off the board. McCarter’s second attempt was no good, keeping the Rangers behind on the scoreboard. Northwest took its opening possession of the second half 73 yards on nine plays, partially due to the rushing attack of Kevin Perkins and Quarderman Sloan. Abraham capped off the drive with a 14-yard strike to Pro Wells, bringing the Rangers back within a point. However, Iowa Western immediately responded, scoring and building a 23-16 margin. After two Northwest drives resulted in only a field goal, Iowa Western all but put the game away early in the fourth quarter, using back-to-back touchdown drives over a four-minute span.
JOSHUA NORWOOD finished with 14 tackles in the 2017 Graphic Edge Bowl, one shy of Turner Rotenberry’s team-high of 15 stops. The Northwest defense held Iowa Western to just seven first quarter points, only for the Reivers to still come away with 457 total yards.
The loss meant Northwest was held under 20 points for the first time since October 15, 2015. The Rangers were also outgained 457-422 in total yardage. Abraham finished 21-of-40 for 246 yards and two touchdowns, while Perkins finished with 107 yards to lead the Rangers’ rushing attack. Defensively, Turner Rotenberry finished with 15 tackles, along with 14 from Joshua Norwood and 13 from Keith Brown, Jr.

NORTHWEST MISSISSIPPI GULF COAST
40 13
Nothing was normal about the 2020 football season in the MACCC, or the NJCAA for that matter. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, while most schools across the nation elected to postpone football season until the spring, the MACCC pressed on and each team overcame its own set of challenges to play a limited schedule throughout the fall months. Being the only conference participating in the fall of 2020, the NJCAA did not recognize any of the MACCC teams as its national champions that season. However, a national champion was still crowned on December 5, 2020, and that was Northwest. Competing in the MACCC Championship and the National Community College Football Championship, the Rangers traveled to Mississippi Gulf Coast, a team aiming to stake its claim as back-to-back national champions. However, Northwest had other plans, shutting out the Bulldogs in the first half in front of their home crowd, en route to a 40-13 blowout victory. From the opening snap, Northwest set the tone on defense, swarming the Bulldogs early and often. Although the Bulldogs’ staunch defense also gave the Rangers fits early on, Northwest finally got on the board with 4:48 left in the first quarter, as Tucker Barefoot nailed the first of his four field goals. Barefoot would hit two more in the first half and the Rangers finally found the end zone late in the second quarter, when Michael Hiers connected with E. Jai Mason on a 12-yard pass, giving Northwest a 16-0 halftime lead. Mississippi Gulf Coast stormed into the second half with some momentum, embarking on a sixplay, 65-yard drive that finally helped the Bulldogs reach the end zone. However, the Rangers later responded with Barefoot’s fourth field goal, stretching the lead to 19-6.
Tailback JAQUERRIOUS WILLIAMS was one of several major factors in helping Northwest to a blowout victory at Mississippi Gulf Coast. The Tupelo native picked up his second 100-yard rushing game, totaling 109 yards on the ground, as the Rangers earned the MACCC Championship crown.
Mississippi Gulf Coast closed out the third quarter by crossing midfield and advancing to the Rangers’ 29-yard line. However, a holding penalty pushed the Bulldogs back 10 yards and the next play proved disastrous, as Micheal Campbell forced a fumble that was recovered for a scoop and score by Jykeveous Hibbler. Although the stunned Bulldogs reached the end zone and closed the gap to 26-13, a touchdown from Jaquerrious Williams and a 70-yard interception return from Byron “Tank” Pearson proved to be the dagger for Northwest, as the Rangers captured its fourth national title.

NEW MEXICO MILITARY INSTITUTE NORTHWEST
49 30
In an offense-driven contest where both teams exceeded 600 total yards, Northwest was unable to contain Anthony Grant’s unprecedented rushing outburst, as New Mexico Military Institute took a 49-30 victory in the NJCAA Division I Football Playoff semifinal. NMMI piled up 655 yards of total offense, led by 472 rushing yards. The Rangers compiled 625 total yards, with nearly 400 of those coming in the passing game. Northwest locked down the Broncos’ offense on the opening possession and forced a quick three-and-out, only for the Rangers to also come up empty-handed after two incompletions. NMMI would turn Anthony Grant loose on the second possession, as the Broncos’ star tailback got his team on the board with a 32-yard score for the first of five touchdowns on the day. William Testa followed with the ensuing PAT to give the home team a 7-0 lead. Northwest answered with a 10-play, 73-yard drive that culminated in a short two-yard score from Jaquerrious Williams. However, the Rangers’ point-after attempt was unsuccessful, keeping the Broncos ahead 7-6. Two plays into the next NMMI possession, Northwest seemingly caught a break as Grant’s fumble was recovered by Jykeveous Hibbler, giving the Rangers a short field at the five-yard line. However, Northwest was unable to reach the end zone, settling instead for a short Eli Hamlin field goal. NMMI respoonded with a 75-yard drive that carried into the second quarter, capped off by another Grant score that put the Broncos ahead, 14-9. After Northwest came up empty-handed on its next possession, NMMI responded with a 12-play, 70-yard drive that ended in a touchdown and a 21-9 advantage. JACOBY JONES caught six passes for 40 yards against New Mexico Military Institute in the 2021 NJCAA Division I Football Playoff semifinal game. Northwest fell to the host Broncos, 49-30, as NMMI went on to win the national championship two weeks later.
After trailing 28-16 at halftime, Northwest broke the ice in a quiet third quarter, as Michael Hiers connected with E. Jai Mason on a touchdown pass. However, Grant broke free on an 88yard carry to open a 21-point fourth quarter for NMMI, helping the Broncos gallop away from the Rangers down the stretch. Grant was undoubtedly the difference-maker for NMMI, totaling 398 yards on 26 carries. On the other side, Hiers completed 32 of his 53 pass attempts with two touchdowns, setting a new career-high in completions in his final game as a Ranger.

IOWA WESTERN NORTHWEST
33 12
For the first time in the program’s history, Northwest played host to a national postseason contest, featuring the hometown Rangers and visiting Iowa Western, one of two NJCAA Division I Football Playoff semifinal games. Unfortunately, the notoriously stout defense of the Reivers spoiled the historic home game for Northwest, as the Rangers were held to a season-low three first half points in a 33-12 loss. Northwest was held to a season-low 26 rushing yards, as Iowa Western took the Rangers’ ground attack out of the game entirely. On the flip side, the Reivers moved the ball well on the first two possessions of the game, both resulting in points and clock-burning drives. Iowa Western’s first possession of the game lasted nearly six minutes and was capped off by a 19-yard field goal from Sam Wilber. Forced to punt on its first drive, Northwest surrendered a 12-play drive over a five-minute span that ended with a 35-yard touchdown pass from James Graham to L.J. Fitzpatrick. Trailing 9-0, the Rangers moved the ball to midfield entering the second quarter and worked their way to the Reivers’ 35-yard line. However, the drive ended in no points for Northwest, later setting up another score from Iowa Western, as the lead extended to a 16-0 margin with 9:10 remaining in the first half. Northwest finally began to find some momentum on the ensuing possession, with Ren Hefley completing a 10-yard pass to Jaycob Horn and a deep 59-yard target to D.T. Sheffield. However, the Rangers were unable to reach the end zone, settling instead for a 25-yard Eli Hamlin field goal with 6:24 to go. Iowa Western scored once more before the halftime break, as the Reivers converted a 22-yard field goal to go into the locker room with a 19-3 advantage.

Though Northwest struck first in the second half with Hefley’s quarterback keeper, Will Lee’s pick-six late in the third quarter effectively ended any chance of a comeback. The Rangers got another Hamlin field goal in the fourth quarter to pull within 26-12, but a six-minute drive produced another Iowa Western touchdown and ultimately, the final dagger. Northwest was outgained 335-262 in total offense, with 236 of the Rangers’ yards coming through the air. Iowa Western accrued 182 of its total yardage on the ground.

For the third time in the last four years, Northwest made a return trip to the NJCAA Division I Football Playoffs, pitted against No. 1 ranked Iowa Western in a rematch of the 2022 semifinals. Though the Rangers struck first and captured the momentum early, Iowa Western stormed back and would fight tooth and nail to take the halftime lead. From there, the Reivers held Northwest scoreless in the second half, slowly pulling away to earn the 42-21 victory. Iowa Western finished the game with 27 first downs, compared to just 12 from the Rangers. The Reivers also totaled 420 yards of offense, compared to just 247 from Northwest, with 246 of IWCC’s yards coming in the rushing attack.

For Iowa Western, Hunter Dekkers completed 17 of his 30 pass attempts for 174 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. His top target, Fresh Walters, collected 66 yards on five catches.

In their fourth trip to the NJCAA Division I Football Playoffs, the Northwest Mississippi Commuinty College Rangers picked up another battle with a new opponent, facing of with #1 Hutchinson Community College for the first time in program history, and only the second time in school history they faced off with a program from Kansas. The opening drive of the game was carried by a pair of third down conversions by the Dragons as they took the ball from their own 25-yard line and on 11 plays were able to punch the ball in on a five-yard run by Kade Smith to take the early lead at 7-0 with 10:11 still to go in the game. A botched punt return would set the Dragons up to double their lead after the Rangers gave the ball away at the seven-yard line, and Hutchinson would jump on the opportunity to go up 14-0 with 11:53 left in the first half. Another touchdown was added after a punt went out of bounds at the 43-yard line on Northwest’s half of the field and the Blue Dragons saw their quarterback take it in three plays later for a 21-0 lead. The first half scoring was closed on a field goal as time expired in the first half and Hutchinson took a 24-0 lead into the halftime break. Both offenses’ would be held silent in the third and fourth quarters, with the only points coming on a 20-yard field goal in the fourth quarter for Hutchinson, and the game would wrap up with Northwest on the wrong side of a 27-0 score. The tale of the game could be seen in the time of possession where the Blue Dragons held the ball for 38:33 as Northwest never could sustain control of the ball on their possessions. Northwest was held to just 38 yards rushing in the game as they couldn’t find much room against the Blue Dragon front, and while the passing game saw Neko Fann throw for 180 yards, they weren’t able to string plays together with the quarterbacks constantly under duress.
The Northwest defense had their hands full against the top ranked Blue Dragons, playing well and holding Hutchinson to one of their lowest point totals of the season, but a lack of offense would doom the Rangers to another exit in the semifinals.
On the defensive side of the ball, Jerry Wall III had one of his best games in his career with ten total tackles and 3.5 of those going for loss. He also picked up one of the two sacks in the game for the Rangers defense. Charles Woodard had the other sack in the game as one of his six tackles and had two for a loss. As a team, the Rangers had three fumbles, losing two of them and weren’t able to force any turnovers in the game themselves. The loss marks the first time in 109 games that the Rangers have been shutout, going back to October 16, 2014, when East Mississippi Community College achieved the feat in the regular season.

COACH BOBBY FRANKLIN: 1936-2025 Coach. Husband. Mentor. Father. Friend. Those are just some of the words that could be used to describe longtime Northwest football coach Bobby Ray Franklin, who passed away in May at the age of 88. Though Franklin’s longest coaching stint was at Northwest, his impact on the game of football stretches far beyond the Five Star City. Born in Clarksdale, Miss. on October 5, 1936, Franklin was a four-sport letterman at Clarksdale High School, becoming the first sophomore to win four major sport letters. He was the co-captain of the Wildcats’ football team and earned All-State, All-American, All-Big Eight and All-Southern Team accolades. Additionally, he was also the captain of Clarksdale’s basketball team. In 1956, Franklin received a full-ride scholarship to the University of Mississippi, where he starred as the Rebels’ quarterback from 1956-60. During his time at Ole Miss, Franklin led the team to three straight bowl appearances, and was chosen as the Most Valuable Player in the 1958 Gator Bowl. Later, Franklin was selected as the MVP in the 1960 Sugar Bowl, where he threw a pair of touchdown passes in a 21-0 victory against LSU, the defending national champions. The 1960 Ole Miss football team finished the season 10-1 and was voted as the national champions by various selection committees.

Franklin was chosen in the 11th round of the 1960 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns and was also selected by the Los Angeles Chargers of the newly-formed American Football League. Ultimately, Franklin chose to play for the Browns and spent seven seasons in Cleveland, helping the franchise to the 1964 NFL Championship. The Browns also won the 1965 NFL Eastern Conference Championship. During his time in Cleveland, Franklin was used primarily as a defensive back but also returned kickoffs and held for field goals and extra points. He was teammates with future Pro Football Hall of Famer Lou Groza (1961-66) and played in 86 games during his professional career, hauling in 13 interceptions for 187 yards and two touchdowns. Franklin stepped away from professional football to begin his coaching career, starting in 1967 with Georgia Tech, where he served as the Yellow Jackets’ defensive back coach until 1968, when he joined the Dallas Cowboys as a member of Tom Landry’s coaching staff. In Dallas, he served as the defensive backs coach from 1968-71 and as a special teams coach in 1972. He coached in Super Bowl V and Super Bowl VI, the latter of which helped the Cowboys capture its first NFL championship, a 24-3 win against the Miami Dolphins. Franklin spent one more season in the NFL, coaching the defensive secondary for the Baltimore Colts in 1973, before eventually making his way to Northwest as a member of Ray Poole’s coaching staff in 1979. During his two years as an assistant, the Rangers went a combined 13-7, including a 9-1 overall record during Franklin’s initial season. In 1981, Franklin was named as the next head football coach at Northwest, and the rest was history. In just his second season as the Rangers’ head coach, NWCC went 12-0-1 and captured the 1982 NJCAA Championship with a 16-9 win against Ferrum College in the Eastern Bowl. In 1991, Franklin’s team fell in the Coca-Cola Mid-America Bowl to Northeastern Oklahoma A&M, only for the Rangers to return the following season, earning the 1992 national title with a 34-0 revenge shutout of the same opponent. continued on next page >>>

COACH BOBBY FRANKLIN: 1936-2025 Throughout Franklin’s entire tenure as the Rangers’ head coach, Northwest never posted a losing season. The Rangers went a combined 202-56-6, winning six MACJC titles (1982, 1987, 1989, 1991, 1992, 1999) and 11 MACJC North Division championships (1982, 1983, 1985, 1987, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1998, 1999, 2003), with appearances in the 1982 Eastern Bowl, 1986 Roaring Ranger Bowl, the 1987 Jayhawk Bowl, the 1989 Shrine Bowl, the 1991 and 1992 Coca-Cola Mid-America Bowl games and the 1998 Mineral Water Bowl. Franklin is a member of numerous halls of fame, dating back to his 1988 induction to the Ole Miss M Club Hall of Fame. In 2003, he was inducted into the Northwest Sports Hall of Fame and in 2005, he was chosen for inductions into the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame and the National Junior College Athletic Association Hall of Fame. In 2007, Franklin was enshrined into the Mississippi Community College Sports Hall of Fame and three years later, he was inducted into the Mississippi Association of Coaches Hall of Fame. In 2013, he was voted into the Clarksdale/Coahoma County Sports Hall of Fame. Over the course of his career, Franklin coached numerous future NFL and Canadian Football League players, including Pro Football Hall of Famer Cortez Kennedy and CFL Hall of Famer Henry “Gizmo” Williams. Other notable professional players that started under Franklin’s leadership include John Avery, Dan Footman, Cletidus Hunt, Gerald Perry, Roell Preston and Fred Thomas. Despite his retirement from coaching following the 2004 season, Franklin remained in Senatobia and was a well-known member of the community.

THE MACCC
THE MACCC What is the MACCC? The Mississippi Association of Community Colleges Conference (MACCC) represents the collective interests of Mississippi’s fifteen public two-year colleges. This Association was chartered, in part, to provide a framework for the development and administration of policies and procedures related to the governance of student activities at the various institutions. It is the belief of the MACCC membership that a well-rounded program of student activities greatly enhances the total development of the individual student and promotes the fulfillment of the purpose of the various institutions. The benefits of such activities prepare students through the development of discipline, teamwork, sportsmanship, fair play and other virtues essential to success in life. The Association supports the wholesome benefits of inter-school competition in athletics and other student activities. Through this shared vision of the institutional and collective benefits of a progressive program of student activities, the MACCC seeks to offer competitive programs that are established and maintained based on a high standard of ethics and fair play.

To this end the Association has developed and approved the following policies and guidelines to insure fairness and equity to all students and institutions participating in activities sanctioned by the MACCC. The rules and regulations contained herein have been established as a guide for the administration of student activities sanctioned by the Association. Participating institutions shall be entitled to all privileges of membership granted through the constitution and by-laws of the Mississippi Association of Community Colleges Conference (MACCC). MACCC Mission Statement It is the mission of the MACCC to foster a state program of intercollegiate activities in an environment that supports equitable opportunities consistent with the educational objectives of member colleges. Policies, Rules and Regulations MACCC institutions are bound by NJCAA policies, rules and regulations. In the event there is a difference in policy of MACCC and the NJCAA, the more restrictive policy shall be followed. In all cases, the MACCC Commissioner shall have the authority to monitor, investigate, report and impose penalties for violations of either MACCC or NJCAA policies, rules, or regulations. In addition to any NJCAA sanctions issued, MACCC will issue penalties in accordance with this Handbook. (See NJCAA handbook for corroborating statement of policy by the NJCAA). Article V, Sec. 1, e. Participating colleges have agreed to respect institutional boundaries in the recruitment of students. These boundaries, originally established to provide local and regional financial support for the various colleges, serve as restrictive borders for institutional recruitment in athletics and other student activities as well as in the recruitment of general students. a.) The activities of the MACCC shall be administered by the Commissioner, the MACCC Athletic Directors’ Association, the Athletic Council, the Executive Committee of MACCC and the Mississippi Association of Community Colleges Conference. b.) Requirements for participation in MACCC athletic activities are (1) to endorse the code of sportsmanship, (2) active membership in the NJCAA and (3) to abide by all rules of the Association. c.) Acceptable conduct by participants in competitive sports is rightfully the concern of all who share in promoting athletics. However, the final responsibility for the conduct of coaches, players, and spectators is that of the president of each institution. d.) Breaches of conduct by coaches, players, and spectators should be reported to the Commissioner, and action will be taken as deemed necessary under the established policies of the Association. 178

Three-time UDA National Champions
Patrice Christian Dance Team Coach
Patrice Christian has transformed the Northwest Mississippi Community College Dance Team into one of the premier programs in the nation since her arrival in the fall of 2021. Specializing in hip-hop–based routines, Christian guided the Rangers to their first-ever appearance at the UCA/UDA College Nationals during the 2022–23 season. In just their second year of competition, Northwest claimed its first UDA national championship in January 2024. The squad successfully defended that title in 2025 and 2026, capturing back-to-back-to-back Open Hip-Hop national championships while also earning additional medals in Game Day and Traditional divisions. Under Christian’s leadership, the program has established itself as a consistent national contender and a source of pride for the Northwest community. Christian’s vision, choreography, and commitment to her student-athletes continue to elevate the program, building a culture of excellence that has quickly placed Northwest among the nation’s elite collegiate dance teams.
