Any of ESL .... they've got about 13 of them and they're all bada$$
I’m not usually a yellow/blue fan but I really like Lyons yellow unis w blue accents and the yellow helmet with cursive Lyons.
Cary Grove with a classic Penn State is still one of my favorites
Best one I've seen live so far this season
I love MC’s classic helmet. I love their throwbacks and happy they brought them back, it’s great to see the yellow pants back out there, but I agree they should be for homecoming and special games against long rivals only. I love the Brown Jersey and White pants. I don’t like the Brown on Brown look at all. I don’t like any same color pants and jersey on any team...SRs red on red, BRs Maroon on Maroon, no thanks.
Love the look Palatine got back to this season. Warren has some cool combos, and so does SR. LZ has a pretty clean look. Those Kenwood unis with the Ole Miss vibe are pretty sweet. I also liked the Baylor like design EG went with this season
St.Rita has the best combo uniforms. Colorful red, white and blue. Take your pick!
Joliet Catholic another favorite with the Victory Light on the side of the helmet
Class 5A football quarterfinal: Peoria 36, Mascoutah 21

Sorry MC fans but brown as a team color is as ugly as you can get imo.
Remember seeing an all blue look at one point along with a red jersey blue pants that was also sharp
JCA's helmet when they wear the road white on white is tough to beat.
@USD24 who approved the brief change to the black (or appeared to be black) helmets with the JC Hilltoppers written on it in the early 90’s?
The Franciscan Nuns. They wanted nothing to do with the victory light! I was actually reprimanded for wearing a JCHS jacket with a victory light on it while on the sidelines.
I second SR! Lots of great combos.
Swagger black Jumpman are no joke!

I’m glad the Carmelites prevailed!! I remember the stickers on the back!
I am trying to convince Montini to go with a all black uniform with gold numbers. Their gold is more like a yellow color.
After the last 3 years they need some kind of a change.

I hate the "gold" pants. I think the school got them on sale many years ago and wanted to save a buck. Unfortunately, this gold nonsense spread to tee-shirts, caps and other items. It got to the point where many people thought gold was one of our colors. (Our cheerleaders used to shout, "our colors, brown, white and gold.") An MC official appeared on an interview at the LA game wearing a dark brown cap with a gold MC logo. That hat should be burned. Brown and white have been our colors for 122 years. I hate to see anyone monkeying with them in an effort to be cute.
BTW, I agree with you on all one-color outfits -- except for white tops and pants. Our all white road outfits are beautiful. I can'st say the same for all-brown home outfits.
The worst all dark color uniforms are worn at home by Northwestern. It makes them look even slower and more plodding than they actually are.
I am down on any jersey color combo with low contrast between the colors of the numerals and the top. And the narrow light-colored outline of the the numerals just does not work. Of course, who really needs jersey numbers given the difficulty of easily accessing accurate and updated rosters, particularly those showing all of name, position, height/weight and year in school.
Love the Palatine uni’s. Not sure why but I do.
JCA all whites are tight for sure.

That's because they're really cool 
Gorgeous.That's because they're really cool
Saw those last Saturday and they are super clean. Probably my favorite.
It would be awesome to see them play Glenbrook South with their Michigan uniformsThat's because they're really cool
I am an admitted homer and proud member of the posse so of course I have a special spot for those "Family" jerseys.
My non homer answer would be the JCA all Whites with the brown helmet. Mostly because that's what they wore when freshman Tuccs was standing on the ticket table watching them beat RB. Which leads me to my bonus answer of the most hated uniforms which would be RB from the same era....if you're sensing a theme or grudge....you're right!

Although, not really Rita's colors, I like the powder blue unisThe baseball team is not doing too bad either:
SR grad here and I hate all the combos. It’s an absurd waste of money. Go with a classic white helmet (no helmet stickers except for one SR decal on each side) and a pair of white pants and a pair of red pants. You can have 3 jersey options (red, blue, and white).
Prob my age (45), but I like MC’s yellow pants. MC grads tell me that is not an official school color though

I could give a crap about uniforms. Just make the numbers readable.
I remember even the last years of JCHS with the Victory Light had the black helmets. Those helmets were painted dark brown for a while and then we eventually just left them black. It wasn’t until Coach Sharp’s return did the brown helmets return.
The Blue stripe in the uniforms definitely clashed with the Brown!
