An exciting announcement came on Friday from Texas A&M University-Central Texas.
The university in Killeen now has a mascot.
The logo represents the schools nickname, Warriors.
Students, faculty, and community members voted on three finalist designs, choosing the winner.
It's a new logo that respects the University's unique relationship with Fort Hood soldiers, and all US Service Members.
TAMU-CT Student Body President Clarence Enochs said, "We are warriors, because they were warriors, and so we appreciate their service, and I don't think, I couldn't think of a better time to do this unveiling other than at the beginning of Memorial Weekend."
The winning design is a mix of Spartan, Trojan, and Gladiator warriors in their traditional armor.
School leaders say it's the latest step in developing a unique identity for the new university.
