Mavericks Wordmark Logo

The Nebraska-Omaha Mavericks have been a part of the NCAA since 2011, and their iconic logo has become integral to the school’s identity. The Mavericks wordmark logo is simple yet powerful, representing the team’s spirit and its long history in collegiate sports.

The original design for the Maverick's wordmark was created by former student designer Ryan O'Hara in 2010. It featured two large M's, one on top of the other, with a bold font style that symbolized strength and power while also being modern enough to appeal to younger fans. The colors chosen were blue and white, which are traditional Omaha colors used by many other universities across America at that time.

Since then, some minor changes have been made to update it over time, but overall, it remains true to its original look from 2010 when it was first introduced into college athletics at Nebraska-Omaha University (UNO). In 2015, they added an outline around both letters, making them appear more distinct and giving off a 3D effect when viewed up close or far away, depending on how you look at it! This subtle change gave UNO athletes something new they could proudly wear during games without completely overhauling their brand identity too much either way - win/win situation all around!

There has been talk about revamping this classic design in recent years, so stay tuned for what comes next! For now, though, we can all enjoy looking back fondly on how this simple yet effective logo came together almost 10 years ago now - here’s hoping UNOMA will keep using these same elements going forward because they represent not only our beloved university but also our entire state with pride every single day!
