One more and they'll tie the hockey team's record!

Congrats to Texas - heck of a battle by the Lady Longhorns.

The seniors are leaving with 3 titles and a 102 game winning streak. That's sick.

Anyone know the all-time winning streak record in the NCAA, regardless of division, sport, gender, etc? Just curious.

What was that DIII football team (IIRC)? They had a very long streak. Wasn't GVSU, maybe it was Union? Or Mount Union (the school Pierre Garcon is from).

Found the Championships winning streaks.

D-III Kenyon had 29 straight men's swimming/diving championships and 17 for the women. Arkansas had a dozen indoor track titles.

Cael Sanderson was something like 150-0 in his four years of wrestling at Iowa State.

Middlebury won 5 straight D-III hockey titles == Bemidji won 4 straight in D-II.

Mount Union won 55 straight.

Wikipedia says Penn State's 102 is second to:

College Football (Women's)

169 games—1986-1990 North Carolina

* Streak started September 30, 1986
* Streak ended September 17, 1990

Major sports streak would be Penn State, followed by UCLA's 88 game steak under Coach Wooden.

Women's college football? Wow. I never knew, really.

Thanks for the stats.

ESPN was showing a count-up of all the streaks throughout the season, but I think it was just D1. The largest they showed was 154 by Miami, FL tennis in the early fifties.

Trinity men's squash has the best in the history of college varsity athletics, 202 the last count I could find, but squash is only an NCAA sport for women, not men.

I used to play and coach and have watched a lot of high end VB and that may have been the best yet. Sorry I tuned in as late as I did. Two amazing teams playing an amazing match.
