Curtis scored on a 49 yard run by Charles Quinn in the first quarter. The Patriots added the two point conversion to take an 8-7 lead.
Curtis cut the Rummel lead to 20-14 with under two minutes to play on an 11 yard TD pass from Buddy Taylor to Javon Stoudimire-Davis.
Curtis was hurt by four turnovers, and a stout Rummel defense.
Rummel head coach Nick Monica said his team has improved much in the second half of the season.
