Storylines
Like the Energizer Bunny
The Mustangs surpassed the previous program record of 26-consecutive matches without a loss by taking down Rogers State on Sept. 13 and ran the streak to 34 in a 4-1 rout of Oklahoma Christian. MSU Texas became the seventh team in NCAA Division II history to go at least 34 matches without suffering a loss and first since Southern New Hampshire's 37-match streak ended in 2014.
 
The Maroon and Gold matched Tampa for the fifth-longest streak in NCAA DII history. The Spartans previously went 34 matches without taking a loss twice (9/81 – 11/3/82 & 9/28/94 – 11/3/95). MSU Texas can match Southern Connecticut State for the fourth and fifth longest streaks this weekend.
