Two universities that I know of (there may be more as I didn't do an exhaustive search) have lumberjacks as their mascot. Can you name them?

Not without Googling it, so I recuse myself.
I saw only two as well. Not from the part of the country I expected.
Good question.

Larry Barrett
I think Paul Bunyan might be part of the anwer. So guessing a university in Minnesota.

John Verkamp
Stephan Austin in north east Texas?

Not one that I came across Larry, but like I said my search was not exhaustive.

That is sooooo close John. Luckily I do not penalize for spelling or missing middle initials and you are correct that Stephen F. Austin University mascot is a lumberjack. So...sspplleeeecckkding. That was the sound of my splitting the rogue trivia award in half (since you guessed SFA University you get the right half [stealth hint but not much of one]). I expect you will see it in the mail in the next 30 time intervals or so.

I'm guessing the other is near Brunswick, Ga.

Hi John,
I found Mariners and Trojans but no lumberjacks. Sorry, I guess you will have to be more specific. BTW, thank you for trying to reunite the Rogue trivia award. Here's a little hint. The planet (or not depending on who you talk to) Pluto was first discovered in an observatory in the town that the lumberjacks call home. (Just like you to give a hint to a trivia question in the form of another trivia question --- Hey you in the parentheses...quit grumbling!)

Not going to be here this weekend so the other school is the Northern Arizona University Lumberjacks in Flagstaff Arizona, home of Lowell Observatory which first discovered the plutoid Pluto.
