Sorry, didn't mean to leave the last post without elaboration.

 

Galax has gone back to the Alabama look with jersey numbers on the sides of the helmet.

 

Grayson has done away with the most recent Arizona St. pitchfork look and gone to a two toned navy front half and gold back half ala the Jacksonville Jaguars.

 

Carroll has done something different with the UVA cavalier logo and maybe gone to a white helmet instead of silver. I haven't seen theirs so I am not as familiar with the changes.

Ridgeviews look pretty good imo. There are things I would have done different but its more a matter of personal taste rather than anything being really wrong with them.

 

Im not a fan of Unions new look. Their original unis were some of the best looking around imo. Theres also an issue w/ the U logo, the orange half gets lost in the helmet, so from a distance it just looks like an odd shaped navy colored L.

 

Im not a fan of Centrals red helmets either. 

 

I saw Abingdons grey ones in the paper, probably the best looking uniforms around. Navy and grey/silver looks great together.

Carroll has gone to a flat gray helmet with jersey number on one side and the cavalier on the other.  Sweet looking helmet actually.  Grayson's look really good also with the flat navy and gold.

Galax helmets are white with maroon stripe down the center and jersey number in maroon.

 

Grayson has a Jacksonville Jaguar two tone flat navy front and gold back for this season.  Last season, they were all navy with a gold pitch fork exactly matching Arizona State new look.

 

Carroll County is exactly what you have except switch colors.  Gray helmet and navy logo.

 

Pictures can be found on Galaxgazette.com

I agree, Northwoods colors are Navy and Silver but they have taken away almost all grey/slilver and replaced it with white.  I don't like it for a couple of reasons, white is not part of the school colors and my preference only I don't like the color white.

They have a new one this year that, for the most part, looks like the one you have listed as "2004-present", except for the stripe...

I know that, for instance away jerseys are 98% of the time white.  I guess what I'm trying to say is the first 15 years of the school we had silver helmets with navy facemask, navy or silver pants, navy jerseys with gray/silver numbers outlined in white.  Now it's a navy helmet white facemask, white pants, navy jersey with white numbers outlined in gray (I think).  It's just a peve of mine going away from your colors, and not liking the color white (I can't stand a white car or truck, helmets, or white shoes).  Going back to the helmets this year they are like Alabama's with a white stripe and numbers on the sides, I do like them

Gotcha.   I drive a white truck so I dont have the same issue lol   I cant imagine why a school whos colors included grey/silver wouldnt use it. Grey/silver really sets uniforms off. Ridgeview didnt use grey/silver, instead opting to go with all black(they also have white pants). I wish they would have mixed in some silver but the black makes the bright blue really pop. Overall im satisfied.  

 

I liked the N logo Northwood used last season, An oversized block N would look good imo

I like Ridgeviews look with the black and bright blue.  I think a block N would look good too.
