- Trinity has it’s 50-game winning streak snapped as Holy
Cross upsets the #1 ranked Shamrocks 15-14. Trinity’s win streak was the second
longest current win streak in the nation before the loss. Chris Griffin scores a
touchdown for Holy Cross in the third quarter and after quarterback Robbie
Jackson hooks up with Damon Baldon on a two-point conversion, for a 15-8 lead,
the Cougars hold on from there for the victory. Holy Cross coach Bob Bronger
says, “In all my days as a player and a coach, I’ve never seen kids play so
hard.”
