One of my co-workers here at the newspaper has a directory of Illinois high schools. Part of the guide lists the names of the sports teams. I thought I'd share some of the more amusing ones. I am not making any of these up.

Freeport and New Berlin HS - Pretzels
Hoopeston Area HS - Cornjerkers
Monmouth HS - Zippers
Polo HS - Marcos
Rockford East HS - E-Rabs
Jamaica HS - Salt Fork Storm
South Beloit HS - Sobos
Teutopolis HS - Boys Team is called Wooden Shoes, girls team is called Lady Shoes
Waverly HS - Scotties (nice to have a school named after toilet paper)
Zion-Benton HS - Zee-Bees

I think it's hilarious that not one, but two high schools are called the Pretzels. :D

Kecoughtan High School - Warriors - The team does the Indian war cry before every game.

http://1490.sportscombine.com/affiliate/234/story/khswar_103.jpg

MORE BASEBALL. Kecoughtan's Steve Chambers leads the district with 41 strikeouts this season, including eight from a 2-1 win against Gloucester on Monday. ... Chambers also leads the district in innings pitched (33) and also has a 2.12 ERA with a save. ... Pitchers Geoff Morehart of Denbigh and Andy Preston of Menchville remain the only four-game winners in the district. ... Denbigh's Matt Macdougall is one of the hottest hitters. He is 11 for his last 16 with two home runs in the last four games (all wins) for the Patriots.

Well done to Steve:cool:

Hmm my Rugby team didn't have a odd name, but before everygame we would end up doing some kind of rather loud shouting/roar thing to throw the other team off before a game.
