Michigan high school football team ends 35-game losing streak

It’s not quite a championship high, but breaking an extended losing streak is one of the best feelings in sports. That’s why one long-suffering high school football team in Michigan has cause to celebrate this week.

New Haven (Mich.) had not won a game since October of 2017 heading into this past Friday night’s game against Madison Heights (Mich.). The streak stood at 35 games, the second-longest in the state.
