Maryland's two longest active high school football win streaks ended last week, turning the mantle over to DeMatha, which has won 13 in a row.

Stephen Decatur saw its 28-game win streak ended in a 23-14 upset to Wicomico. Decatur had not lost a game since the 2022 playoffs. Patuxent's run of 15 straight ended in a 28-7 loss to North Point in a clash of Southern Maryland Athletic League powers. North Point (4A-3A) and Patuxent (1A) remain the top-ranked teams in their classification.

STATEMENT WIN: Dunbar

Dunbar's skill was too much for four-time defending 1A state champ Fort Hill as the Poets ran away with a 30-0 victory. Dunbar remains the No. 1 team in the 2A-1A rankings.

BEHIND THE NUMBERS

Howard County public schools are a combined 9-2 against out-of-county opponents. ... In one of the most bizarre starts to the season, the seven Baltimore City Division II schools are a combined 0-13 this season. That run will end this week as the teams start head-to-head league play.
