Re: Should FRC Team name = HS athletic team name?

1732 wanted to find a name that wasn't our school mascot, but we couldn't come up with/agree with one (we wanted to be named the "Jumping Jesuits" but it was nixed by the school), so we stuck with our school mascot of the Hilltoppers. I do not think we would have made that decision if "Hilltoppers" wasn't unique.

In the FIRST community, having a unique or memorable name can be extremely beneficial. But in your school community, having the same name has a lot of benefits (especially if there is a lot of school spirit or successful sports teams).
