Chartiers Valley girls tie state winning streak record

The girls high school basketball team with the longest winning streak in Pennsylvania history now has company. And the record could be broken in a few days.

The Chartiers Valley girls crushed Moon Friday, 79-26, in a WPIAL Class 5A Section 1 game. The win stretched the Colts’ winning streak to 62 games, tying the state record set by Lancaster Catholic from 2017-19.

Chartiers Valley (5-0 overall, 3-0 section) could break the record with a win Monday against South Fayette. Chartiers Valley entered the game against Moon (2-2, 1-1) game tied with York Catholic for the second-longest streak at 61 games — and the game was never in doubt. Chartiers Valley led, 27-5, after the first quarter and by 48-11 at halftime.
