During recent years VCSU has used the following sequences of helmet designs:

• 2018: A-A-A; A-A-A; A-G-G; G
• 2017: A-A-A; #-E-E; F-F-G; G ('#' refers to a game scheduled for September 23 vs Finlandia which was not played. The game was originally listed by VCSU as a forfeit victory over Finlandia, but as of March 2023 is designated as a tie at VCSU's website. The game is not listed on Finlandia's schedule for 2017).
• 2016: B-B-B; C-C-A; A-A-A; D

The first helmet design shown above had apparently been in use since at least the late 1990s. I have not received any information about earlier VCSU helmets.

*1 Uniform numerals are worn on the left side only of both designs 'B' and 'G'; the right side of each features a large "viking head" logo (as depicted below).

*2 Uniform numerals are worn on the left side only of this design; the right side has a "viking head" logo and hence looks like design 'E' above.
