You forgot the Nimrods of Watersmeet
I only included football-playing schools, but that is a good one.
I thought they might have an 8-man team.

They do not. Total enrollment is 31. To my knowledge they have never had a football team.

Lol! the Polo Marcos is ridiculous. Seems like a bad fictious team name in a spoof style movie. Hilarious. I love it. New favorite team They are in our conference. Going to 8-man football next year. We play them Week 9 this year. Hope they still have enough guys to play.

There are some awesome mascots in Illinois, although not all of the schools play football. Freeburg Midgets Tuetopolis Wooden Shoes Fisher Bunnies Plano Reapers Centralia Orphans (girls sports are the Orphan Annies) Effingham Flaming Hearts Codben Appleknockers Hoopeston Cornjerkers Polo Marcos Freeport Pretzels One of my junior high social studies teachers, a guy named Fred Willman, wrote a book called "Why Mascots Have Tails - The Illinois High School Mascot Manual". It's a great read for anyone who loves local history and high school sports.
