LOOKING AHEAD

Looking Ahead

The 51-win streak that fell in Dallas marks the longest active run to end this season. Last week it was 41 in New Jersey. The week before, 32 in Denver. The pattern is clear: spring tournaments are where streaks go to die. The deeper the field, the shorter the odds of staying perfect.
