Wolfie Takes Round One in Quest for Mascot Madness Three-Peat

Wolfie, the two-time defending SUNY Mascot Madness champion, began his quest for a three-peat by winning round one against Big Blue of Alfred State.

Wolfie rolled to victory with 71.63 percent of the votes in the annual tournament, now in its 11th year, where SUNY mascots battle to find out who the fans feel is the best in New York State.

Up next for Wolfie in round two: Walter the Wildcat from SUNY Polytechnic.

The voting schedule is as follows:

  • Round 2 = March 19 (12 pm) - March 21 (3 pm)
  • Round 3 = March 22 (12 pm) - March 26 (3 pm)
  • Semifinals/Final Four = March 27 (12 pm) - March 29 (3 pm)
  • Finals = April 2 (12 pm) - April 4 (3 pm)

Wolfie won each of the last two Mascot Madness titles by defeating Oakie the Acorn of the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry in the finals. Last year was a tight race - Wolfie won by just 33 votes, with 50.04 percent of the vote to Oakie's 49.96 percent - a margin of just four-hundredths of a point. So every vote counts!
