Brandon, MB (CKLQ) – To celebrate 50 years, the Brandon University Bobcats have unveiled a new logo.
The newest logo is a modern adaptation of the Bobcat head logo.
Marketing Officer Matt Packwood says, "The logo is universal in terms of applications. Makes it fairly seamless in terms of that applications on social media, web/digital, clothing, print, web, everything."
The idea to replace the former Burst logo was actually first tossed about 5 years ago according to Athletic Director Russ Paddock.
He says, "50 years of BU being in existence as a university, that was the extra motivation to put in the time to make it happen."
There is some other perks according to the logo.
"This new logo is very clear and very identifiable. It will definitely give us a better presence across the country," says Men’s volleyball coach Grant Wilson.
It’s the 3rd logo in the program’s 50 year history.
