Comments
Malone, Notre Dame, and Walsh will be new members of this conference in 2012, while Indianapolis has left to join the Great Lakes Valley Conference.
Tiffin, Lake Erie, and Saginaw Valley State were each using new helmet designs in 2011 (shown above).
I have never received much information about historical helmets for these teams - any useful information would be appreciated.
