Comments

Tiffin will be a new member of this conference in 2008. Gannon and Mercyhurst have departed to join the PSAC.

Indianapolis was using a new helmet designs in 2007 (shown above), while Findlay returned to an older helmet design (last used in 2002).

I have never received much information about historical helmets for these teams - any useful information would be appreciated.
