Their perfect season in 1970 followed a 1–6–1 record in 1969^[5] and remained the only undefeated season in the history of the Simon Fraser football program.^[6] At the end of the season, Simon Fraser was ranked No. 2 among Northwest small colleges in voting by regional sports writers and broadcasters.^[7]
