Purple and White

The origin of school colors can be traced back to the founding of the high school in 1925.  According to an eyewitness account in Buck Ford's book, Down Trails of Victory, members of the student body adopted purple and white as the official colors of the new high school in Port Neches.  The most likely reason was that Beaumont High School, a school that was admired by many in the area, used royal purple and white as it's school colors.

The color purple symbolizes royalty, regality, and nobility, and is the perfect color for the strength that the PN-G community represents.

Other high school teams that use purple as a primary color are the Newton Eagles and San Marcos Rattlers.  Purple was a also a primary color of the former Lincoln 'Bumblebees', and Beaumont High 'Royal Purples'.

In the National Football League, the Minnesota Vikings and Baltimore Ravens also use purple as primary colors.
