Monte wins Mascot of the Year for the University of Montana

Monte, the University of Montana’s wise-cracking, break-dancing mascot, will be named Capital One Mascot of the Year on Saturday.

It will be the bruin’s second time atop the heap. Monte was also the nation’s top collegiate mascot in 2002.

"We are just ecstatic," said Christie Anderson, marketing director for UM Athletics. "It’s just great publicity for the University of Montana http://www.umt.edu/ nationwide.

"It gets people thinking about the university and that Montana must be a great place to go for college. It really gets the word out about Missoula and the university and that we have a great program here."
