Requiem of a Winning Streak

All good things must come to an end.

The UConn women fell to the Stanford women last night, ending their record winning streak at 90 games.  Not only did UConn lose, they got their asses kicked.

Now that the winning streak is over, it’s time to put it in perspective.  UConn had won all but three of those games by double-digits.  There are some members of the team who never lost a college game before last night.

The last time the UConn women lost a game was April 2008.  Guess who they lost that game to?  You guessed it: Stanford.

So let’s remember this game for what it was: an amazing winning streak that may never be matched.  It shouldn’t matter that a team full of women set the bar so high.
