Does anyone know what the largest winning margin has been for a game that ended at the half? Just wondering.
(Of course the largest margin would be a halftime game)

I remember, I think it was 2001 or 2002, Bryan Brazos Christian beat New Braunfels Christian 102-0 (Brazos now plays crowded field). Reason I remember that was the following February, our Lifegate girls played their girls in a playoff game and beat them something like 59-35.

I'm running the clock (I was AD at the time) and as the game ends, some daddy from Brazos makes a beeline across the court and demands to speak to the AD. I identified myself as such and the dad went into a tirade about how we could call ourselves a Christian school and allow my coaches to run up the score. I remembered that his school won the 102-0 game, so I wasn't terribly interested in taking a "running up the score" lecture from folks from there.

The problem is that during the 1950s some times schools didnt observe the 45 point mercy rule, in fact the original rule stated schools could agree before the game to for go the mercy rule...because of that it's unclear if games back then were ended at half time...I have scores margins that are bigger than the 96 by RS over Eden but all were pre 1960 I know one was not a half time game because it was in 1938 and that rule wasnt made yet, but the others it's unclear if the game stopped at halftime...so I guess that RS game would be the highest public vs public school
