The new logo was introduced last weekend when the men's basketball
team unveiled their 2010 national championship banner. The banner is
on permanent display in the Jack D. Nutt Arena, alongside the 1989
and 1991 national championship wrestling banners.
Last spring, Lincoln College sponsored a logo design contest in
the community schools. Danielle Burgrabe, a fifth-grader at Zion
Lutheran, and Haley Welch, an eighth-grader at Lincoln Junior High,
were the winners. Their Lynx renditions are on display in the
hallway of the Lincoln Center.
On Saturday, the athletic court at the Lincoln Center will
officially be named the "Zurkammer Pickering Court" at a ceremony
honoring Tom Zurkammer and Allen Pickering, two longtime employees
of Lincoln College. The ceremony will be at approximately 2:30 p.m.,
between the women's and men's home basketball games. Over the
summer, the court in Jack D. Nutt Arena will be painted with its new
name and the new Lynx logo at center court.
The men's and women's basketball teams are hosting John Wood
Community College on Saturday. The John Wood men's team is currently
first in the conference while the Lynx sit one game behind in second
place. The Lynx men are currently ranked No. 8 in the latest NJCAA
National Poll.
