Toronto Metropolitan University asks community's help naming new team and mascot
So long, Eggy the Ram! With a new school name comes new opportunities.
Toronto Metropolitan University is on the hunt for a new mascot and team name. The Mascot and Team Name Committee have been hard at work narrowing down the options.
Since the first poll closed on May 30, the committee received over 2,000 responses. It narrowed it down to three team names and six mascots. People have until Tuesday, July 19, at 11:59 am to cast their vote online.
