5 (tie). Waunakee (Wis.), 36 straightThe Warriors are another team that has won its state championship – Division 2 in this case – for the last three years. They have not lost a home game in 14 years.
The streak, though, is in immediate jeopardy because they open against their toughest two opponents – No. 2 state-ranked Monona Grove (Wis.) and DeForrest (Wis.).
Coach Pat Rice returns four starters on offense and three on defense. Rob Hernandez of Madison.com noted that if the Warriors get past their first two foes, "They're pretty much home free until the regular-season finale against Mount Horeb-Barneveld (Mount Horeb, Wis.), the last team to beat them in conference play. Just too deep, too strong and too athletic for anyone around here."
