Mount Union Streak

An amazing streak came to an end this past Saturday as Mount Union lost for the first time in 112 regular season games, when they were beat at home by John Carroll, 31-28.  Even more impressive is the fact that the Purple Raiders were 222-1 in their last 223 regular season games dating back to 1994, and they had won 98 games in a row at home before Saturday’s streak.  Also, for the first time in 24 years, someone other than Mount Union will win the OAC title.  Don’t worry about the Purple Raiders though, because they still made the playoffs and they will make a run at another Division III Championship.
