Herr Furches:
Wild and hairy guesses:
1)Volunteers - Tennessee
2)Golden Hurricane - San Diego
3)Buccaners - South Dakota or Maine
4)Purple Paladins - Deleware
PS: Sublette Larks Ho Ho Ho

golden hurricane=tulsa

got Tennessee Volunteers and Tulsa Golden Hurricane

The University of California-Santa Cruz Banana Slugs is the BEST

and the purple paladins are furman's mascot

Thunderducks is quite impressive along with the Banana Slugs.

Another one down

Here are some good ones

Pitt State - Gorillas only school in the nation with this mascot
Central Missouri - Mules and the women's sports have a different mascot the Jennies the School with two seperate mascots

The guy that drives the wrestling team at UCO had a son that died in a car crash a year or two ago. His son always wore a Watersmeet Nimrod shirt, and now he wears it to remember his son when he goes on wrestling trips.

Swayz-

Deleware is the Blue Hens. I know this because I watched their football team (which has identical uniforms to the University of Michigan for some reason) repeatedly stomp Hofstra...which has the glorious mascot of the "Pride."

Hofstra used to be the "Flying Dutchmen," but changed the mascot to be gender-inclusive when we added women's sports in the 1990s. Bah.

As far as high school mascots--I always thought that the "Lancers" and "Aces" accompanied by baby blue uniforms made for pretty fancy schools...

Gorillas is a great one but they are not the only school in the nation-maybe the only college- I know Soloman near Salina is also the gorillas

Amazing...

1.The Yuma Criminals
2. The Grays Harbor Chokers
3. Those Fighting Canaries of William Allen High School.

I think those three beat my Thunderducks of Richland College. My friend is a graduate of the Benson High School Bunnies. They have a fierce bunny on their helmet.

How about the Pleasant Hill, MO Roosters? Locals say this was chosen because of a large chicken hatchery in town.

Also, Savannah College of Art & Design Bees (although, I don't think they have any sports teams)

By the way, Lancer colors are Columbia Blue, black and white.

I'll straighten Swayz out on my Lancers. Now that we are ranked in the top 5 in 6A, there isn't a baby blue kid on the team!

Lancer proud!

Best One I ever saw wasn't a High School team, but an Amatuer Hockey Team - The Macon (Ga.) Whoopee! Their Mascot was a Whooping Crane! Seriously! Look it up! In the words of Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons (also home of a great mascot - The Springfield Isotopes) "Best. Mascot. Ever."

I am surprised no one has brought up the over used Trojans. Beloit, Hillsboro, Southeast of Saline, and Tescott just to name a few in our area. I believe that one of the Topeka schools is also the Trojans. Kids always get a chuckle when the Topeka Seaman plays a school with a Trojan mascot.

Best I ever heard of, is Hooker Oklahoma, Hooker Horny Toads

St. John's Military School Muleskinners
Pittsburg Dragons
Eureka Tornados
Rose Hill Rockets
