Camosun Mustangs is the new brand for the athletics program at Camosun College

“While a Dodge Charger is a great car, I’ve always been a big fan of Ford Mustangs,” admits Lane Trotter, college president. “Thank you to the student-athletes and staff for understanding my preference. It means a lot to me.”

Camosun currently fields award-winning teams in basketball and volleyball, and has competed in over 100 national and provincial championships with over 50 medal winning finishes.

Heather Cummings, Vice-President for Student Experience, gave a strong endorsement for the name change.

“I sincerely applaud this bold new direction for the future,” says Cummings. “At least it’s a Mustang and not a Pinto. Go Mustangs!”

The name change will result in Rampage, the current GOAT mascot, being put out to pasture and replaced by a donkey until a suitable horse is found. Thank you to Rampage for your years of service.
