What's the name of your High School Football team?

Brooklyn Tech Engineers.

We were a geek school, but we kicked ass.
Lets go Engineers, GO!

The Big Macs.

I swear.

South Carroll High School Cavaliers
UMBC Retrievers

We were the Bishop Kearney Kings and Lady Kings (no, really).

I attended the University of South Florida. They had the Lady Bulls. I guess that’s better than calling them the cows.

Here in Maumee we are the Panthers We are the Purple and Gold Panthers. (runner up State Champ, Varsity Baseball 2001, Thanks Mr. D!)
Please do not confuse us with the Blue and Gold Panthers down the road at Whitmer they are a whole different school system.(Washington Local)

What friggin’ idiot gives 2 schools so damn close together the same mascot and damn near the same colours? Luckily we are in two different athletic leagues.

** GO PURPLE PANTHERS!**

The mighty, mighty Indians of Montgomery County High School. Not very politically correct, I know, but no one has ever made a serious challenge to the name. Our mascot is a lot better than other mascots here in Kentucky. Two college buddies of mine played ball for Somerset High Scool, home of the Briar Jumpers. That’s right, their mascot was a bunny rabbit.

Wow! No kidding? I lived next door in La Cañada for fifteen years and I never knew that. :smack:

And Eran, be glad they weren’t the Burger Kings (see sugaree’s Big Macs above.) :smiley:

Crestwood Colonels (mascot identical to Ole Miss Rebels).

The American School in Japan Mustangs.

Shawnee Mission South High School Raiders.

I also went to Kennesaw State College, now University, for a year back about 12 years ago. Their mascot was the Fighting Owls (which I thought was pretty cool), but everyone called them The Hooters.

And Iowa State (where I taught but was not a student) is called the Cyclones, even though their mascot looks like a cardinal. The best thing about the Cyclones is that everyone has merchandise that says “Go Clones!”

Central Cabarrus Vikings checking in…

Natrone Means is our most famous grad.

South Lakes Seahawks, of Reston, VA.

And now that I’m a PNW resident, my local NFL team is the Seattle Seahawks. I take that as some sort of sign.

The Rhinelander Hodags.

What’s a Hodag?

If only we’d played as mean as that thing looks…

And if only they didn’t call us the “Whore-dogs”

Falcons!!

Still going to that school. Class of 2003.

Our team isn’t that good, the school’s more of the brainy type.

Hey, Rico. We used to be neighbors.

I will now top you all with the single dorkiest knickname in High School history…
The Venice High School …(wait for it)… Gondoliers!

Go Gondos!

The mascot was Gunther Gondolier, portrayed by a woman when I went there.

Even worse, we had “Rowing, not Drifting” painted in the hallways.

My 20 year reunion is in a couple of weeks. This post is about all the reminiscing that I’m going to need this decade so I’ll be skipping it.

Haj

Shattuck Indians!
Shattuck, Oklahoma.

Hurricanes - Northeast High in Oakland Park, Fl. (a suburb of Ft. Lauderdale).

The Redmen. All of our sportsteams are the Redmen… It’s kind of racist, but a lot of our students are Native and as far as I know, the name survived a review on whether or not to change it.

the bombers -

GO A-C :smiley:

I was an orange and brown Mansfield (Ohio) Senior High Tyger. Our rivals were the orange and black Massilon Tigers. We adopted our unique spelling after being confused with Massilon one too many times. Our fight song was a version of the Girl Scout song “G S for Girl Scouts.”

“T Y for Tygers, T Y for Tygers
Someone in the crowd is yelling
T Y for Tygers”

“Followed by a very Frosted Flakes sounding
Grrrrrreat great great, Tygers are great”

Whenever we scored, a huge fiberglass tyger (named Ty) would roar and blow smoke while the sound system played Survivor’s “Eye of the Tiger.”
