1973 Temple City Rams football team


The 1973 Temple City Rams football team was an American football team that represented Temple City High School in the 1973 CIF Southern Section 2-A football season.
The Rams won 46 consecutive games from 1969 to 1973, setting the CIF Southern Section record for most consecutive wins. It also tied the California high school football state record originally set by St. Helena High School from 1960 to 1965. The streak was broken in a loss to Saint Francis High School on October 12, 1973, but Temple City still went on to win the Southern Section 2-A football championship for the fourth consecutive season. They beat North 21–13 in the 2-A championship game at Mt. San Antonio College's Hilmer Lodge Stadium.
The team returned 14 varsity lettermen from the 1972 team, and began training camp on August 27, 1973.
