Pekin sounded like “Peking,” in China, so they gave their teams a related nickname: the Chinks. The team mascots were a male and a female student who would wear stereotypical Chinese attire, calling themselves the “Chink” and “Chinklette”, and striking a gong whenever the team scored. In previous eras the community had almost no Chinese American residents. This lasted until 1981 when the name was officially changed to the Pekin Dragons.
