Comments
Kentucky Wesleyan is using a new helmet logo in 2008 - the new logo is a panther in front of the letters "KWC". I would appreciate a copy of the new helmet logo, as well as a better photograph than the one below. This photograph appears to suggest that there may be some texture within the panther part of the logo; it may not be a simple outline.
Central State's 2007 helmet design featured a maroon helmet shell with the team name "Marauders" in yellow letters; below is a photograph of this design. I still need a copy of the helmet decal in order to add this one to the web site.
The college known previously as the University of Missouri-Rolla has changed its name to Missouri University of Science and Technology, or Missouri S&T, and the football team is using a new helmet design in 2008 (shown above).

Central State's football team was restored in 2005 after a nine-year absence. During at least the 2005 season, the team used the helmet design shown in the photograph below - I would appreciate a copy of the logo used on this helmet, also, as well as information about the team's helmet designs from 1996 and earlier seasons.

This team first played in 1983, so a complete helmet design history could probably be ascertained quite easily by someone at the college with access to reference materials (yearbooks, game programs, etc.). I have not received any information about pre-1996 helmet designs for KWC.

Earlier helmets have been described as follows:
I would greatly appreciate photographs of any of these helmet designs, in addition to the undescribed 1960, 1961, and 1966 helmets for this team.

This team has existed for decades but I have not yet received any information about its 20th century helmet designs.
