The Lees-McRae College Athletic Department unveiled a newly designed logo to better represent its 21 athletic programs Monday morning.
“The logo symbolizes Lees-McRae in a way that many people have known it for many years,” said Craig McPhail, Vice President of Athletics and Club Sports. “A Bobcat is an animal that has fierceness as well as intense dedication and loyalty. We feel like this logo embodies who we were, are and will be moving forward as a department.”
The foundation of the design derived from alumnus, former coach, athletics administrator and Fred I. Dickerson Hall of Fame inductee, Don Baker.
