2026 Ravenna Ravens Football Schedule: First Glance

Ravenna aims to end a string of four straight losing seasons after a promising start to the 2025 campaign. The early slate features a four‑game homestand against four opponents that collectively posted just two wins last year. All of those nonconference games in 2025 were one‑score contests, highlighted by an overtime victory over Niles McKinley.

Travel demands are light for the 2026 roster, with only four road games scheduled. The longest trek is a short 16‑mile jaunt to Cuyahoga Falls, keeping bus mileage to a minimum. This manageable schedule should allow the coaching staff to focus on adjustments rather than logistics.

Ravenna’s final season in the Metro Athletic Conference brings two familiar foes back into the fold. Tallmadge will host the Ravens in Week 6, while Cuyahoga Falls appears in Week 8. The Blue Devils were played every season from 2010 through 2021, and the last encounter with the Black Tigers dates back to 2004.

The marquee matchup against Roosevelt has been shuffled from Week 1 to Week 10, a shift that will also influence scheduling after Ravenna moves to the Greater Portage Athletic Conference in 2027. The Rough Riders remain in the MAC, so this year’s game carries added significance as the Ravens prepare for a new league structure.
