I was reflecting on the fact that when Clarkson beat Harvard last Friday
night, they won their 20th game for the 7th straight season. I also know
that their last sub .500 season was in 1974-75. So, I began wondering what
the streaks were like for other schools, and I put together the following
table. I certainly could have made a mistake, so if you spot one, please
let me know about it. Also, in order to save space, the year given for the
season is the year in which it ended (ie. 1991-92 becomes 92). This year
is not included in this table, even for teams clinching < .500, etc.
First column = last time not in NCAA tournament
Second column = last time < 20 wins
Third column = last time sub .500

Yale 95 95 95
* Maine forfeited 10 wins and 2 tie games in 94.
? Both Minnesota and Wisconsin streaks outdate the archives I could
find, so these guesses are based on league records and not overall
standings. Please correct if you know.
Interesting notes: (assuming data is correct)
o In almost every case, the numbers descend from left to right, except
for RPI who made the NCAA tournament last year without benefit of a
20 win season.
o Longest active NCAA tournament streak: Minnesota, 11 (all-time rec.)
o Longest active 20 win season streak: Minn, Wisc and LSSU, 11
o Longest active .500+ season streak: Clarkson, 20
Thanks for indulging me.
