More like a werewolf than a lion, UNA's human-lion hybrid mascot seems to change with great regularity. For years, Leo was a solo act and, seemingly, a nudist:
Then Una joined Leo, and the pair began to sport athletic attire, but after a few seasons, a more dramatic change took place. The two lions became more "hip," with critics calling Leo a metrosexual. The university countered that Leo's mane often scared children, so he needed to tone down some of the wilder aspects of his appearance.
Indeed, Leo's hair seemed to change more often than Madonna's. With the arrival of new school president Kenneth Kitts and his curious mop, Leo engaged in what some might call hero worship.
It was at this point that the evolution of Leo and Una began to speed up, with almost every season sporting changes to the pair's appearance. Students even injected some fan art.
Now a Division I team, the leonine pair representing the college have still another incarnation. Leo and Una seem almost cartoon-like with their huge schnozes.
We're pretty sure these two are incapable of scaring anyone at this point - unlike this prime example of UNA non compos mentis...
