It's A Record 7 Straight Shutouts

FRESNO, CALIF. – The NAIA's No. 1-ranked Azusa Pacific Cougars gave first-year program Fresno Pacific quite a welcome to the GSAC with an 11-0 shellacking in the first-ever meeting between the 2 programs in Fresno.

The win is the Cougars' 11^th straight victory and seventh consecutive shutout, which ties a school-record set during the Cougars' 1998 national championship season.
