CU = THE RIGHT WAY<br />

The placement of the CU logo on the right side of<br />

the Golden Bear football helmet is no coincidence.<br />

Head coach Mark Mauer has meaning behind<br />

the logo on the right side: “The CU is on the<br />

right side of the helmet to signify that we do things<br />

the right way at Concordia. That transcends football.<br />

The right way applies to the classroom and<br />

the community as well.”<br />
