Just weeks after announcing new jerseys and a new logo, the Saskatchewan Rush are searching for a new mascot name.
The new primary logo features a bison head, an animal strongly rooted in Saskatchewan. The bison head is in the shape of a lacrosse stick, while the hexagon is a reference to Treaty 6 territory, where the team was founded.
“First Nations culture has long revered the stately creatures as sacred with important gifts and teachings” the Rush’s website read.
