The Navarro College Bulldogs came up just short in the Southwest Junior College Football Conference (SWJCFC) Championship, falling to Trinity Valley Community College, 28-24, on Saturday in Athens, Texas.

In a hard-fought championship matchup, the Bulldogs battled until the final whistle but were unable to come away with the victory. Despite the result, Navarro put together an impressive postseason run, earning its place in the conference championship game.

The 2026 season marked the first year under Head Coach Jacques Guillot, known as Coach G, as he took over leadership of the Navarro football program. In his first season at the helm, Coach G led the Bulldogs to a 7-4 overall record and a championship appearance.

The Bulldogs demonstrated determination, resilience, and a competitive spirit throughout the season, laying the groundwork for the future of Navarro football.

Although the championship trophy was not coming home to Corsicana, the season was one to build on. The work continues as the Bulldogs turn their focus toward the next chapter of Navarro football.

Thank you to our players, coaches, staff, and Bulldog fans for an incredible season of support!

Once a Bulldog, always a Bulldog!
