Lake Travis' football team has won 46 consecutive games, the longest active streak in the state, but the Cavaliers' tentative non- district schedule for 2010 will make it a challenge for them to push the streak to 50.

Under first-year coach Hank Carter, the Cavs are scheduled to play Westlake, a Class 5A state finalist in 2009; Aledo, a Class 4A state champion last year; Kerrville Tivy, a 4A state semifinalist: and Hendrickson, another 4A playoff team.

Chaps, Cavs swimmershead to regional meet

Samantha Tucker earned swimmer of the meet honors as Westlake won the District 25-5A girls title Saturday at the Jamail Texas Swim Center.

The University of Texas-bound Tucker won the 100- and 200-yard freestyle races. Other individual winners for the Chaparrals were Maddie Edwards (200 individual medley) and Ruthie Norval (100 butterfly). Westlake's 200 medley relay of Norval, Bayley Wiltshire, Sarah Southworth and Jennie Thomas also picked up a gold medal.

Westlake took first in the meet with 153 points, while Bowie finished second with 119. Anderson placed third.

Westlake also won the boys team title, rolling to 196 points. Matt Ellis, named the boys swimmer of the meet, won the 200 freestyle and 100 butterfly. The Chaps' Eric Dirvin (200 individual medley), Reed Snyder (500 freestyle) and Wes Thomas (100 breaststroke) also won individual titles.

Bowie placed second with 100 points, and Anderson was third with 77.

The top six finishers qualified for the regional meet Feb. 12-13 in San Antonio.

The regional meet will include 30 swimmers from Lake Travis, which swept through its district meet with ease. Leading the way for the Cavs were district swimmer of the year Reid Elliott, Katie Grose and district diver of the year Alexandra Bettridge.
