This will be the 123rd match-up in what is considered to be one of the premier NCAA Division HI rivalries in the nation. The series began during the 1920-21 season in a game won by Hope 29-12. Since that time Hope has come out of the contest victorious 60 times to Calvin's 62 victories. But more amazingly, only nine points separate the teams over fi those 122 games, with Hope scoring 7,851 points to Calvin's 7,842 points.
