Streck had several notable "firsts" in the annals of professional golf, earning him the nickname "Milestone Man".

He was the first PGA player to win with Metalwoods (at the 1981 Michelob-Houston Open).

With his victory in 2005 at the Commerce Bank Championship, he became the first player to win events on all three U.S.-based men's professional Tours (PGA, Nationwide, and Champions).

In 1997, Streck was inducted into the University of Tulsa Athletics Hall of Fame.

*Note: The 1981 Michelob-Houston Open was shortened to 54 holes due to weather.
