redtiger 1,742 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 (edited) Personally I dont like te ones for Abingdon or Richlands but the others are nice, espicially Tazewell. A tornado is a freaking hard mascot to design, although I do like Elizabethtons Cyclone. I think Abingdon would look good w/ something like what Auburn(HS) uses now but still w/ the A they currently use and a more "swept" looking wing.

dawgs86 10 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Here is what Tazewell used while Hart was there. Although I do not remember exactly what year Hart started. The 2003 helmet still had the green shell with a white stripe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They took me about 2 minutes each while I was waiting on the pizza guy. Wasn't trying to change the world or anything. I sent you an email the other day, btw.

Does that 2002 helmet say "Dogs" "Dawgs" or "Bulldogs" lol I can't tell. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW_VA_boy 492 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) Of the 4 other Narrows helmets I've ever known of, I might be able to describe one in a way you could reproduce. I think it began being used in the 50's and was used thru '87 (the last year Narrows was AA). Gold helmet with gray facemask. Green and white stripes like the Green Bay Packers. The logo was a white N with a green backdrop but the N in the middle was of the same font as Radford's R. The green used in the stripes and logo background was the dark green like the Packers also. The other 3 I'll have to dig up photo's of. Thanks for the good work. Edited August 8, 2011 by SW_VA_boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW_VA_boy 492 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Yes sir, that's correct. Basically, gold helmet, green oval, white N. Instead of the Green Bay "G", replace it with the N I described. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigers_07 72 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 i think back in 2004-2005 Twin Valley's helmets was just like the 02 setup but with the black TV logo. i could be wrong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW_VA_boy 492 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 You've got the basic idea down... missing the stripes down the middle of the helmet and the N isn't exactly right but you're on the right track... Probably would help if I could find a photo somewhere (which I don't possess). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
