Texas School Extends Consecutive Game Losing Streak To 49
(9-2-24) It has been a long time since Austin (Tx) Eastside (Early College) Memorial has won a football game.
The Panthers’ last win came in 2017 when they beat Somerset Academy Brooks (0-8) 21-6. Since that time they have lost (according to MaxPreps season records) 49 consecutive games. That streak seems to currently be the longest in the US.
This past weekend they were shut-out by Navarro 14-0.
The Panthers look to break the losing streak this week when they play at Liberal Arts & Science Academy-Austin. The Raptors opened the season on Friday losing 14-13 to Manor New Tech. The Raptors ended last season at 6-4, including a 47-0 win over the Panthers.

* In 2021…Head football coach and campus athletic coordinator Luis Becerra told the American-Statesman–
“We just think it’s a good opportunity to reset the program and let our kids compete on a level playing field. Our kids are fine with it. They understand the reality of our situation, and they’re positive about it and on board with what we want to do. In fact, I think it’s a sigh of relief for them.”
