In 2003, Arkansas State University decided to make a new mascot, named 'Red', created by ASU’s Director of Athletic Marketing Andrea Scott. “The spirit character began as a project to design a character that looks friendly, is unique, and is not an animal,” Andrea said. “I was looking for something out of the ordinary that’s presence could elevate spirit at ball games.” “Red absolutely will not replace Arkansas State’s official mascot, the Indian Family,” said Dr. Dean Lee, ASU Director of Athletics. “Red was named because that was how he was perceived by the marketing analysis and research groups, which were children and youth,” said Dr. Dean Lee, ASU’s Athletic Director. == Awards == 〔('RED' RECEIVES NATIONAL RANKING AGAIN - Arkansas State Athletics Official Web Site - ASUIndians.com )〕 〔(“RED” FINISHES SECOND IN NATIONAL COMPETITION - Arkansas State Athletics Official Web Site - ASUIndians.com )〕 〔("RED" FINISHES SIXTH IN NATIONAL COMPETITION - Arkansas State Athletics Official Web Site - ASUIndians.com )〕 〔(“Red” Places Fourth In National Competition - Arkansas State Athletics Official Web Site - ASUIndians.com )〕 〔("RED" WINS MASCOT AWARD - Arkansas State Athletics Official Web Site - ASUIndians.com )〕 He has won many awards, such as: 2004 – Universal Cheerleader Association – won 3rd place as “best mascot” 2005 – Universal Cheerleader Association – won “best mascot” 2005 – University Cheerleading and Dance Team National Championship – won 6th place 2006 – Universal Cheerleader Association – won “best mascot” 2006 – College National Mascot Championship – won 2nd place Lost only to Auburns "Aubie", and beat Michigan State University's “Sparty”, University of Delaware's “YoUDee”, University of Minnesota's “Goldy Gopher”, University of Kentucky's “Wildcat”, University of Tennessee's “Smoky”, University of Iowa's “Herky the Hawk”, University of Alabama's “Big Al”, University of Wisconsin's “Bucky Badger”. 2006 – Southern Living magazine – All-South football section 2007 – College National Mascot Championship – won 4th place He won over Tennessee's "Smokey", Colorado's "Chip", Delaware's "YoUDee", Alabama's "Big AL", Louisiana State's "Mike the Tiger", and Northern Iowa's "TC".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Red (mascot)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
