Depending on who you ask, the name of a mascot for a team can vary. I recall nearly a decade ago when SAGU was turning the corner as a nationally recognized NAIA men’s basketball program.
They had just experienced the largest turnaround in the country in all of the NCAA and including the NAIA, having improved from 10-21 to 27-11 when HC Donnie Bostwick arrived to steer the program. In his second year at the helm the Lions improved to No. 6, went 33-5 and advanced to the championship game in the NAIA. They appeared on CBS and ESPN.
