Mount Marty Mascot Challenge

South Dakota’s Catholic Benedictine University could have had a paddlefish for a mascot. Or a furry little creature that protects the Mount. A raven, or an owl, or a funny little monk. We explored it all through an interactive community-wide challenge that asked students, alumni, faculty, staff and Yanktonians “what represents Mount Marty!”

The result was over dozens of ideas and sketches, focus groups with kids, lots of discourse, over 700 votes and a strong, yet lovable blue Lancer named Benny.

Then, we brought in the experts from Chicago Mascot Co, who have worked with the Chicago Bulls, Celtics, etc., to bring Benny to life.

I love Benny, because my kids love Benny, which was really our number one criteria from the start. Go Lancers!
