In the 1930s, a campus-wide contest was held to choose our mascot.

The finalists were the Catamount and Mountain Boomer (which, if you didn’t know, is a squirrel).

After many years, we’ve made the decision to become the Mountain Boomers.

Welcome to the Boomer family!🐿️

Thinking about making an in-person recruiting contact? Well think again. July is littered with dead periods so make sure to check your recruiting calendar before contacting prospective student-athletes

#tbt because South Park has good characters. Even if a prospect receives a COVID-19 Waiver through the @ncaaec they need to have their high school upload their final transcript with proof of graduation.
