LA GRANDE, Ore. – The Cascade Collegiate Conference is set to begin the fifth annual mascot challenge this week. Fans will be able to vote for their favorite school mascot on the conference’s Facebook page in round one setting up head to head matchups that will be held on the conference twitter page for the subsequent quarterfinals, semi's and finals.
 
Last year, College of Idaho’s Yote the Coyote beat out Cadmar of Corban University to claim the victory and defend the title won in 2015 and 2016 earning the three-peat.
 
"Our Annual Mascot Challenge has become an event that all of our schools and fans look forward to," stated CCC Commissioner Rob Cashell." We have seen alot of spirited competition and engagement of alumni and friends of each campus through social media."

The opening round will consist of one group featuring all 11 school mascots with the top eight advancing to the quarterfinals. Each mascot will be seeded based on the number of votes they received in round one and the rest of the tournament will be single elimination until a champion is crowned on Feb. 6.
 
Voting will open by 8 a.m. on the start date listed and close at 8 a.m. on the following day. Initial voting will be done at https://www.facebook.com/CascadeCollegiateConference with the final three rounds on Twitter at @cccsports.
