School Cancels 2019 Football Season After Losing 53 Straight Games

A Division III school called Earlham College in Indiana has one of the worst streaks ever in sports. On Saturday, the Earlham College football team lost 70-6 which ended up being their 53 loss in a row. The college has announced that they are cancelling the football program for the 2019 season with hopes of bringing it back in 2020.

“Our board of trustees has been looking at football with concern for several years, and we agree that it is time to consider whether or not success on the football field is a goal we should pursue. This decision was not made easily or lightly, but I am convinced that it is the right one at this point in the history of the College.”

The last win for Earlham College was all the way back in October of 2013 where they defeated Anderson College by 1 point.
