SOUTH BEND, Ind. (WNDU) - Notre Dame’s Athletics Department has unveiled a new look for one of its classic logos.
On Thursday morning, the university released a football-specific redesign of the Leprechaun . It depicts the iconic mascot running while toting a football.
It’s the first in a series of sports-specific Leprechaun marks that will represent each unique sport in which the Fighting Irish compete at the varsity level.
The new logo was designed by Fighting Irish Media and inspired by photo, fundamentals and running styles from former and current student-athletes.
It’s unveiling comes 10 days before the football team’s regular season kicks off down in Miami.
The university is already selling apparel with the new logo .
