0-242? and you thought the Knicks stunk



4.0 GPA + 47ppg = 0 wins

The Div III Caltech basketball team hasn’t won a conference game in 21 years. 242 games! You’d think some point, they’d have accidentally won a game when the opposing team’s bus broke down or got hit by a meteor. Hell, even the Temple football wins a game every couple of years or so.

They are improving though.

In 2003-04, zero games were closer than 30 points; opponents scored over 80 points 19 times. Last season, the deficit was less than 20 in 11 games with Caltech holding 9 opponents to 65 points or less.

Man, those math geeks sure love their stats.

To be fair to the Techers, they did beat a non-conference team at the beginning of last year — Life Pacific College, a Christian Bible college with about 350 students. Hey a W is a W right?
