*1 This design was in use by at least game #5 of the 2014 season (at Albion) while its predecessor was in use during Kalamazoo's first three games; no photographs were located from game #4 (vs Benedictine (IL)). This design was presumably used through the end of the 2014 season, but no confirming photographs were located for games #8 and #9 (vs Trine and vs Adrian).

Uniform numbers are worn on the left side only of this design; on the right side is the same "K"/"hornet" logo which was worn on both sides of the helmets earlier in 2018.
