Central Ohio
During school consolidation phase in Ohio, one township, Fairfield Union, quickly came up with their Mascot, the Charging Knights. That fall when the school opened and kids got their varsity jackets, the full name, Fairfield Union Charging Knights, wouldn't fit so they just used the initials. Needless to say once school officials realized what they had created the mascot was quickly changed to Falcons.
