#WCCMascotMadness semifinal round

March 09, 2015 12:00 AM
LAS VEGAS — The quarterfinals are finished, and there still has yet to be an upset in our WCC Mascot Madness challenge. Top seeds Willie the Wave and Diego Torero cruised through with 88 percent and 73 percent of the votes respectively. The other two matchups, however, were close. Cosmo beat Don Francisco 64 percent to 36 percent, thanks to a late push in the final minutes, while BYU actually had to extend the voting to break a tie between Powercat and Bucky the Bronco. Pacific's tiger eventually won by a single vote. Now you know how important it is to support your mascot!
