They meant well, but this may be an issue for the women's sports teams.
I included a Youtube video which pronounces the word for you to see how close you think it sounds.

wow, bummer. And how about the double entendre from the principal "the children will raise to the occasion." I can see how the kids would love to have that as their mascot - especially Harry Potter fans, but that is a potential cruel pronunciation mistake and kids can be mean - especially with the amount of nasty parents in this world as their examples.

I don’t see it being an issue. Anything can be made fun of if you try hard enough, Phoenix seems like a fine mascot to me despite its plural form.

They need to find something important to talk about. Seriously stupid.
