The Patriots took on Tivy on 11 October 2024 at Antler Stadium. The Patriots were ready for a dogfight against Tivy knowing this game was going to be a tough endeavor from the outset. The first quarter saw a defensive battle as both teams were relentless with their pursuit of the football. Tivy found the endzone, but the Patriots finally found a way to break through the stubborn Tivy defense to even up the points on the board. The Patriots and Tivy traded blows back and forth through the second quarter. The Patriots went into halftime down 21-14. The Patriots came out with renewed determination in the third quarter hoping to fight their way back into the game. The Patriots would drive down the field and kick a field goal while the Patriot defense forced Tivy to fight for every inch that they gained. Tivy would find a way to slip by the defense however and score a couple of more touchdowns to close out the game. The final was 35-17 in favor of Tivy. Christopher Bassett had a 10-yard rushing touchdown and Nate Ortega had a 5-yard rushing touchdown. Rafael Nunez had a field goal. The Patriots next face Alamo Heights in district play on 18 October at D.W. Rutledge Stadium.
