Hi Dan,
Looks like it should be Point Pleasant High School (W.Va.) Here's an excerpt from an article that came up: Legend has it that in the 1920s, a sports writer started calling Point Pleasant's football team the Big Blacks because it had some big players and the team's uniforms were all black. "In the 1950s, the students here adopted Knights as the official mascot, but our name is still the Big Blacks," said Point Pleasant Athletic Director Steve Safl'ord. "The nickname is not in reference to black kids. It has to do with school colors. |
