Other Notes
- From 2007 through 2014, Honaker had an undefeated streak of 102 games at the district/conference level, including both regular season and tournaments. A record that still stands (after the 2017 season) is Honaker's 11-year undefeated streak at the district/conference tournament in order to qualify for Regionals. Honaker has never failed to make a VHSL regional tournament appearance in Scholastic Bowl's history, and has only failed to qualify for VHSL States 5 times since 1998.
- Former Honaker coach Alex Zachwieja was a member of the VHSL Scholastic Bowl Advisory Committee. He took up the position in 2009, and finished his coaching career with over 400 VHSL regular season victories along with an eight-year undefeated streak in the Black Diamond District/Crooked Road Conference. Teams under his tutelage also won six straight Regional-level titles. Zachwieja retired from Honaker High School after the 2014 state championship season, bringing an end to his 16-year tenure as head coach (1998--2014).
- Honaker's 2014 Captain, Jacob Mitchell once held the NAQT Record for most Points Per Tossup Heard in one game (on an IIS set or harder), with a stat line of 13-4-1 for 230 PPTUH.
- After a year of minimal activity in 2015 and with no remaining players from the 2014 state championship season, the team was turned over to one of Zachwieja's former players, Charlie Perkins in 2016. Under his guidance, the team has returned to prominence once again, winning two consecutive 1A State Championships.
