Most of you know that my son Blake, a.k.a. "My favorite artist", is often busy painting things that I could not even dream of painting. In fact, my mother used to tell me that I got all of my artistic talent from her. And then she would laugh and say she can't even draw a stick person. You get the idea.
Blake is also an accomplished collegiate baseball player. He is in his second year at McCook Community College, a junior college in the heart of Nebraska. They start their competitive spring season coming up on February 8th in Snyder, Texas and also play in Kansas and Oklahoma before finally playing on their home field February 26th. Check out the rest of their schedule here.
Blake was approached by head coach Jon Olson to redesign their logo. Below is the non-descript logo of the past.
It is interesting to note that he had numerous design limitations on colors and what he could do with the logo. The biggest restriction centered on their nickname. They are the McCook Indians and it was made clear to him that the new logo could not include an Indian brave, a tomahawk, or other logo ideas that have been associated with schools that have a nickname of "Indians".
With that in mind, the new logo that Blake designed and some of the new gear is shown below.
And here is the pullover.
Pretty cool stuff. And, last I heard none of it is available because it sold out. If you want any of this gear, let me know. I'm putting an order in soon.
