Mount Union Vs. UW-Whitewater: Division III Battle Rages On As Warhawks Win Third-Straight
To call Mount Union and Wisconsin-Whitewater the dominating forces in Division III football might be an understatement. The two teams have been unstoppable, consistently rising to the top of the DIII and meeting in the championship game over the better part of the last 10 years. In fact, Friday marked the seventh-consecutive meeting between the two teams in the Division III National Championship, and presented Wisconsin-Whitewater with a chance to keep an impressive winning streak alive.
UW-Whitewater came into the Friday night matchup with a 44-game winning streak and the last two national titles in hand. The streak represented a shift in power, with Mount Union losing its nearly two-decade-long grip on Division III. And in 26 years, the Raiders had lost just 23 times heading into this year’s championship; an impressive reign at the top, to be sure.
