MONTVERDE, Fla. -- One for the record, three for the title.

That's the situation facing Montverde Academy (Montverde, Fla.) at this week's Montverde Academy Soccer Tournament.

The Eagles defeated Merritt Island (Merritt Island, Fla.) 2-0 Tuesday night, pushing the program's undefeated run to 133 matches -- tying the national record set by Gilford (Gilford, N.H.) between 1990-1997. Montverde needs a victory Thursday against Chandler (Chandler, Ariz.) in the Fifth Annual MAST quarterfinals to set the national record. If Montverde wins all three matches at the MAST, it would secure a second straight perfect season and fourth straight SIMA FAB 50 Winter No. 1 ranking.

Here's are the longest undefeated streaks in high school boys soccer history, as researched by TopDrawerSoccer.com:

TOURNAMENT FIELD

MAST organizer Brad Long seems to make the eight-team field even stronger than the year before. In addition, to current SIMA FAB 50 No. 1 Montverde Academy, the field includes No. 2 Sam Houston (Arlington, Texas), No. 7 Gulliver Prep (Miami, Fla.), No. 9 Cathedral (Los Angeles, Calif.), No. 23 St. Paul's (Covington, La.), No. 49 Melbourne (Melbourne, Fla.), Tampa Jesuit (Tampa, Fla.) and Chandler (Chandler, Ariz.). Sam Houston was a Texas 6A state semifinalist last year. Chandler, Gulliver Prep and St. Paul's are defending state champions. Cathedral was a Southern California Region champ and the state's top-ranked team. Tampa Jesuit and Melbourne made deep playoff runs in 2015. All eight teams have been in the SIMA FAB 50 this season, four remain undefeated, and all eight have a combined record of 91-8-7 this season, which includes Montverde pinning the only loss on Melbourne.
