Raging Tide Logo Gains National Attention

May 30, 2012 - Futures Collegiate Baseball League (FCBL)
Old Orchard Beach News Release


OLD ORCHARD BEACH, ME- The Old Orchard Beach Raging Tide logo has gained national attention by being selected by CBS Sports Houston as one of the ten most unique logos in sports. The logo was created last season prior to the inaugural season in Old Orchard Beach.

Gavin Little of CBS SportsRadio 610 went searching throughout the country to find creative sports logos, stating that sports logos are becoming a lost art, as many minor league teams are now mimicking their parent professional team instead of embracing the culture of that local city. The Brockton Rox, who recently joined the FCBL along with the Tide this season, was also in the top ten. The Rox moved to the FCBL after spending eight seasons in the Can-Am Independent League.

"And you thought the "Roll Tide" of Alabama was fierce. They actually were able to make a baseball and water mean looking with teal colors. How I don't know but for a college baseball league with a low budget, I'm impressed!" states Little about the Raging Tide logo.

The Raging Tide will begin their season June 7th against North Shore Navigators at The Ballpark. First pitch schedules for 6pm.
