There are plenty of Bulldogs, Raiders, Tigers & Wildcats but the king for UIL is the Eagle which 67 schools have as their mascot.

Unfortunately, more than one school uses. “Buckeroo”, “Kangaroos” and, surprisingly, “Sandies” so I eliminated them.

Here ya go, the magic 21

A great name that’s not on there is the Frost H.S. “Polar Bears”! That combination of town name & Mascot has a ring to it!

I can’t believe that you left out the FALFURRIAS FIGHTIN’ JERSEYS (an oxymoron indeed). The favorite chant of our rivals was “Milk Those Cows.”

5

I know you were only naming public schools, but you gotta love The Hocaday School “Daises”. Talking about putting the fear into the opposition!

This thread was giving me that old deja vu feeling, and I figured out why.

Never gets old, though, even if it was just a couple of months ago. :slightly_smiling_face:

8

It is spelled Buckaroos.

Also, I think the list requires the Industrial Cobras deserve consideration.

10

All great team names. We could add the Groesbeck Goats to the list.

11

I had a hard time cutting it to 21. Probably could have easily gone to 35.

I wanted to add “Gladiators” but both Roma and Italy used it.
