It is just the second 10-game win streak in program history, joining the 1952 and 1953 teams that eventual won a school-record 14 games in a row, closing 1952 with six-straight wins and opening 1953 with eight wins in a row. Saturday, C of I will put a 5-game road win streak on the line in Helena - just the third Coyote team to win at least five in a row away from Caldwell. The Yotes won 5-straight on the road between 1948-49 and picked up 10-straight road wins between 1952-54. The squad will also look to extend a 6-game win streak in Montana, dating back to a 2017 win in Helena over Carroll.
