Lake Travis win streak on the line

The Lake Travis Cavaliers are the owners of a 48 game win streak and three consecutive state titles, but they are about to be tested as never before over the past three seasons, including the playoffs.

First the Cavaliers face 4A #2 Aledo Friday night at home, then they host 4A #6 Kerrville Tivy, who is coming off an impressive win over San Antonio Madison.

Lake Travis gave up 268 yards rushing to Pflugerville Hendrickson running back Kenny Williams last week and will have their hands full with Aledo's junior running back Johnathan Gray, who ran for over 200 yards and five TDs against Weatherford last week.

The Cavaliers are also missing top wide receiver Conner Floyd, who is out with a leg injury. Make no mistake though, Lake Travis still has plenty of talent, and the swagger of a champion. If they ace this test and go on to win another title they will make their mark with one of the best runs of any team in Texas high school football history, regardless of classification.
