Bingo. The official school colors of my hometown high school are blue and white, and have been the school colors going all the way back to the 1940's. I used to teach in the system, my kids went to school there, and I know this for a fact. Over the past thirty years some uniforms have included red piping as an additional color, an "unofficial" school color. Several years ago, a new head football coach outfitted the team with red helmets. At the time I was tending bar at a local country club. You should have heard the barfly old timers complaining about the red helmets. It didn't matter whether the new coach, and the team, were doing well, or not, it was those damn red helmets, and red was not a school color.
