Call 'it what you want,' baseball's HarbourCats name-the-mascot contest

You can put your money on Harry, but don't count out Hariette.

Suggestions are pouring in for the Victoria HarbourCats' soon-to-be-born mascot. The Name the Mascot contest is on until Feb. 24 and the top three picks will get some mighty ticket prizes. The grand prize winner receives two season tickets ($550 value), with two runner up prizes consisting of one a 10 game reserved flex pack ($99 value each).

The expansion team's mascot is still in the "womb," so to speak, and though most assume its a boy, the gender is not necessarily defined, said HarbourCats general manager Holly Jones.

"Submissions are still pouring so we're almost starting to it narrow down but there's still a week and a half to go.

"By default people are assuming he's a boy, judging by the submissions, but we'll have to figure it out."

Holly Jr., for example, isn't out of the running.

"That might be a bit confusing. I have brown eyes, he (she) does not," said Jones.

New for this contest is that the winner's name will be released, where as the person(s) who came up with the HarbourCats name went undisclosed.

Visit the Harbourcats website to make a name submission. The mascot is on order and will be introduced by name within a month of the contest's closing.

The West Coast League baseball season opens June 5 at Royal Athletic Park.
