I've always liked the M that was on their helmet. Very unique, wondering if they got it from some other team or if it's original.

A play on the University of Illinois' helmet at the time.

I feel like there was a fad in the late 90s, early 2000s where teams had slogans on their helmets or jerseys in place of school logos. Not sure if that was the Right Stuff to put there.

Same pants and helmet from 2007

I though these were a throwback when I saw them in 1996. They looked like they were from the 1960s even when I saw them in person in full color. This black & white photo make it look even more so.

Notice the stripes on the helmet start in the front almost touching, but end in the back apart.
Geneseo H.S. 1999 (away)

Helmet had a spear on each side.

Good looking white on white kit with side leg stripes that match shoulder & helmet. Helmet logo was a copy of Washington Redskins and players had names on the back side.

This might be the saddest helmet in IHSA history. Especially in the year 2002. Even in 1972 this would have been boring. It's the default setting of a video football game.
