Two Bluffton University students have performed the duties of Bluffton mascot J. Denny Beaver this academic year. But the identity of only one was revealed during a “beheading” ceremony at halftime of Bluffton’s men’s basketball game on Feb. 15.

Sarah Dailey, a senior from Zanesville, was introduced as one J. Denny during the ceremony, which traditionally marks the only time that college mascots remove their costume heads in public.
