  #32 has an interesting style but is way too detailed. Also, the shield should probably be in front of the crusader rather than having the crusader superimposed on the shield. The lance can be removed.

     It can reduce lines and can come with more simple way. Can do it:)

  #29 and #31 look to be the same design. Both are interesting but they are way too detailed and will not scale well. The circle is not needed around the logos. Neither is the sword.

     I can make these simple within this . Simple lines that can be visible in small seal .

  #25 , I can't really tell what I like about this logo because the images are way too small. I do know that the plume on the shield should be completely removed as should the sword. The shield doesn't need the tiny elements within the panels. It just needs the panels. Something seems a little odd with the helmet. Other than this this might be an interesting design.

  #7 has designs that are too small to be adequately reviewed. As with #7 , the plume on the shield and the sword need to go away. Also, the circle around the logo is distracting and should be removed.

  #26 is way off base. Wrong colors. Wrong shield. However, general style and feel of the logo were pretty good.

  #37 is similar to #39 and #40 . The dark black design is just way too much. I think this logo will work far better on a white background. The shield is also interesting. I meant to also say that, of the three logos, I like the open helmet best in #39 .

  #34 , #35 , and #36 are way too detailed and will not scale well. They are also basically two color designs. The odd shape of the shield just doesn't seem to fit.

     Could you post the shutterstock url? #28 and #27 are way too complicated to be athletic logos. They are also some the least visually appealing of all the options presented.

  The same comments generally apply to #38 as to #39 except that number 39 is the better of the two designs with the exception of the shape of the shield.

  #39 is an interesting design but there is way too much emphasis on the horse. The horse is the least important element in the entire logo. However, the way the horse is styled is somewhat close to what we are looking for. There are thick curvey lines which gives the horse a softer feel. That is sort of what we envisioned for the entire logo. The really sharp points on the horses mane and on the crusader's plume are not good though as they will not scale well. The shield uses the pattern from the school's shield logo but the lines are way too thin. They would be better if they had the same stylized feel as the horse. Nice start.

  #40 is interesting but is also too complex. It will not scale well down to black and white or grayscale or small sizes which was one of the requirements. Use of the Medieval type font is interesting but probably not something the client would be interested in. The sword should have not been included.

  #41 is a good illustration but is way too complex.The shield also does not use the panels of the shcool's shield logo as was required. Finally, the requirement was to not have a sword. It is also not quite the style we are looking for, but I think the illustrator is talented.

  Most all of the entires provided have far too much detail. Athletic logos are intended to make an emotional appeal. The human mind cannot form a connection with logos which are too complex. If we could simplify some of these logos it would probably make a big difference.

     The most effective designs right now are the ones by Kimberart.
     
     There is a tremendous amount of psychology behind logos. Basically, the first thing people notice in a logo is the shape. The more complex the shape, the more difficult the logo is to recognize. What we are looking for is a logo which people can easily recognize and associate with emotional events (i.e. sporting events). Here are links for athletic logos that might be worth looking at.

     Also, look at Chris Creamer's Sports logos site. There are good AND bad logos there. Worth a review. http://www.sportslogos.net/
