 ==The Uniform==
-When the IHSA passed its infamous uniform requirement, Wheaton North opted to dress in Hawaiian-style shirts.  The uniform was a tribute to a former Wheaton North Scholastic Bowl player who died in a car accident before his senior year, when he would have been captain.  While at first, some coaches wondered if the uniform violated the "appropriateness" standard of the rule, the team has never had a serious challenge to their use.  Today, they have become the team's unofficial trademark, and often make the Falcons the most easily identifiable team at virtually any tournament.  In 2005, the [[IHSA]] received possession of one of the shirts, and added it to the display case in their headquarters foyer, which contains many artifacts from past champions in their sports and activities.  Wheaton North's shirt is the only representation for Scholastic Bowl.
