I will take 10 more years of winning before the National Record is challenged.

Concord (Calif.) De La Salle High School holds the National record at 151 games.

Now that's a streak.

Exactly what I thought....when you are a big private school that can recruit you are expected to win.

With their last win Lake Travis now has 43 straight victories. At one time the Hull-Daisetta Bobcats held the National Record for consecutive wins with 43. Congrats LT and good luck on breaking the one time National Record next week.

Looks like you need to write Texasfootball.com and tell them to update the site because it has HD with just 41. Congrats to Lake Travis and to HD!

Here you go Mr.Hornet. Check out this link, it has all the scores and the facts. Notice how little ole H-D crushed the big city teams. I knew about the misprint on that other site. 43 baby !!! Enjoy Mr.Hornet !! http://www.hdisd.net/docs/1-1930s%20Record.pdf

Found this on Wikipedia -----  Independence High School, Charlotte, North Carolina ---

Most notably, the Independence varsity football team, coached by Tom Knotts, won 109 straight games and won seven straight North Carolina High School Athletic Association (NCHSAA) State Championships (4-AA). As of November 24, 2006, the Big I held the second longest winning streak in high school prep football, and also held the most consecutive wins in US public high school football history

In response to Lake Travis tying  Hull-Daisetta's 43 game winning streak,H-D's streak could have been more if small schools could have played for state championships back then.They could only go two rounds deep.The streak could have reached at least 55 games since H-D was ranked No.1 in the classification 4 straight years.  ;D

I could see guessing Katy or a school like that, but HD would have never crossed my mind.  What time period was their victories?
[/quote] It was in the 1930's. H-D had the national record with 43 straight wins. Also H-D has been to State twice. We went in 1961 and lost, then we won State in 1979. H-D has 510 total victories counting this season, which is #7 in 1A all-time. Katy has been good lately, H-D has been good since established.

Or, the flip side, LT made mistakes and should have beat them by more?  Only statistic that really matters in the post season is the final score.  They were back in form last week and I am not expecting the Cavs to have a letdown this Friday.
