Very possible it's simply a font being used for social media and print collateral designs. Not an official font to be used on uniforms, official documents, etc.

They are making the mistake of moving away from Trajan...

That's a creepy looking Spartan helmet there... and where is this school located? Are they even in the NCAA or NAIA?
It's Northampton Community College, NJCAA Region 19. It's in Bethlehem, PA.

Made in Affinity Designer. C&C appreciated.
Firstly, I love the Stars design. That Willis Tower logo is kick-ass, and the uniforms are great.
Secondly, what's "Affinity Designer?" Is it free?

I'd say that that wasn't worth the refresh. It's not different enough to warrant the changes, IMO.

1,000,000 points to the person who found the Ricky Williams picture to use for this.
And a trillion points to the person who did the photo shop. They even replaced the "Dolphins" wordmark on the jersey with a "Grateful Dead" one.

It's actually clever and well executed, instead of a Brandiosesque, ham-fisted attempt at being clever.
First time I've seen it for a "proper" team. Lots of beer league use.
The site https://www.mascotdb.com/browse does not list this mascot. As far as I can tell, it's a very comprehensive list of mascots and teams that use them.

Wait, when did this happen? And why are they dropping Blackbirds?
They announced in October that they're merging the athletics programs into a single Division I program.

LIU is taking blue and gold?? Seriously??
Yawn.
My thoughts exactly. They say to "honor and unite the traditions." If they were going to do that, then go with green for the Post campus and black for the Brooklyn campus.

Oh boy, so which Sharks will have the better branding?
I'd imagine that LIU will.
LBSU is keeping their interlocking LB and their "Beach" wordmark in their set. So who knows how heavily LBSU will actually lean into the new nickname.
Meanwhile, LIU is starting from scratch--merged institution, new nickname, new colors (blue and gold).

Since it says “shark” in singular form on the promo (that I somehow deleted), maybe it will be a specific type of shark like USCB?
"LIU teams will compete as Sharks beginning this September"
-
So the combined LIU teams will go by the nickname of Sharks starting next year.
We went from having no sharks in Division I to two (with Long Beach State).

That's a great lion logo

Count me in the minority, but I think the Greensboro new logo is a downgrade. It looks too "of its time" and it looks like a ripoff of a Rickabaugh logo.

Apparently some Disney animators helped work on the new Charleston Southern logo.

Clear upgrade, but the bevel effect across the entire brand does it zero favors. Even a skin tone would help tremendously, because these look like some weird, android Pilgrims.
I wish they'd have kept the ship in some form.

Interesting. Same font. Same embossed lettering with grey glow on the bottom three. Yikes. Do these schools realize they're getting a cookie cutter representation?
That's what Phoenix does. For a while, they used Impact for a lot of things (UMass Lowell, Rhode Island College, Iona, LIU Post, Jacksonville State, Siena, SUNY Poly)

As a member of the MVC, I wish Missouri State would update their bearhead logo, and also create a alt logo and a wordmark that is somewhat similiar to the old "SMS" wordmark!
I actually don't see what's wrong with MSU's bear head. I like it.

Believe it or not, in the past year and half they've created these:
It's not like what we seen from Torch or on here & Behance but they're still serviceable. Each are improved updates from their previous brands. Where would be your alma mater?
My alma mater is UMass Lowell

Phoenix Design Works, there's no doubt because they use the same font design for each brand. Once you recognize it you can spot the schools designed by them pretty well.
I'm just glad Phoenix doesn't seem to have any new identities being unleashed. I wish my alma mater would get away from their work...

Cal U (California University of Pennsylvania, Division II) Vulcans revealed their new athletics logos yesterday. Source
--> 
While they're not the only Vulcans in the NCAA, I think it's safe for them to brand under the name instead of Cal U which I'm sure many have confused with the state of California.https://calvulcans.com/news/2019/2/21/general-cal-u-reveals-new-university-athletic-logos.aspx
Let's give Carnegie Dartlet the credit for this
1) That's a gorgeous Vulcan logo
2) I love the hammer hidden in the "C". That can work on its own.

Southern Illinois (Carbondale) is coming out with a new look on the 28th: https://twitter.com/SIUSalukis/status/1100047771845816320/video/1
ugh... it's Edwardsville that needs a new look

The "Walking Deacon" instantly reminded me of Washburn University's Ichabod logo. They're close enough, I think, that Washburn could ask to have it changed. I say that based on Iowa vs. Southern Miss.
