Comments

Duquesne will be a new member of this conference in 2008.

I would appreciate information about other historical helmet designs used by these teams. Some of these teams have only existed for a few years, so it is likely that a complete helmet history could be ascertained quite easily for them by someone at each respective school.


Historical Helmets

ALBANY

1973 - 1977 ? - 1985 1988 - 1992
*see note 1 below
1993 - 2003 2004 -

*1 This design was also used by Albany's club-level team from 1970 through 1972.


CENTRAL CONNECTICUT STATE

2001? - 2003 2004 -

During 2000, CCSU used blue helmets with decals containing the words "Blue Devils" and a pitchfork; below is a rather poor picture of this helmet. I would appreciate a copy of the decal used on this helmet.


DUQUESNE

? - 1998? 1999? - 2002 2003 -

MONMOUTH

1993 - 2003 2004 -

Monmouth's football team first played in 1993, so these are apparently the only helmet designs ever used by the team.


ROBERT MORRIS

1997 - 2001 2002 - 2005 2006 -

SACRED HEART

? - 1998? 1999? - 2003 2004 -

SAINT FRANCIS

c.1994 1996 - 1997 1999 - 2000
2001 2002 - 2005 2006 -

During the 1998 season, St Francis used black helmets with a logo depicting a red lightning bolt, outlined in white; I would appreciate a copy of this logo from someone. These helmets had red facemasks and white-red-white central stripes.


WAGNER

c.1974 ? - 1980 1981 - ?
2000 only(?) 2006 2001 - 2005; 2007 -
