DSU Narrows Mascot, Nickname Choices To Three

Dixie State University in St. George has announced finalists in its efforts to rebrand the school's mascot and nickname for its athletics teams.

The finalists are the Trailblazers, with a bison mascot; the Sun Warriors, with the god Apollo as mascot; and the Raptors, with the mascot being the Utahraptor.

The university had those choices as part of six available on a survey regarding what the rebranding should look like.
