Coach Brooke Kuhl-McClelland talks about the game [podcast]. "In 50 minutes they lost the game, they lost their rankings, they lost their tournament, and they lost their streak." Online chat with Eli Saslow, writer of the Post article. Before their 103-game streak started, the Vikings won 63 consecutive games before losing one game. They finished the 2007 season 19-1 and won an 11th consecutive state championship.

A friend of mine got a 4.0 first semester of his freshman year. One of our common friends noted, "It's all downhill from here."
