Crusaders Primary Logo

The Holy Cross Crusaders have a long and storied history within the NCAA, and their primary logo is no exception. For almost 70 years, the same iconic Crusader shield has been used to represent the college's athletic teams. The logo was first introduced in 1951 when it appeared on jerseys for football players at the school’s home games. Since then, it has become an instantly recognizable symbol of strength and courage for fans of Holy Cross athletics all around the world.

The original design featured a white cross with red trim inside a blue circular border that had two gold stars above it. Over time, minor changes were made to give more definition to certain elements such as adding shading along some edges or making slight adjustments in size or coloration but overall this classic design remains true today just like when first created seven decades ago!

This timeless emblem serves as an inspiration not only for athletes who wear its colors proudly but also those who follow them faithfully from afar – reminding us all that we can strive towards greatness even amidst difficult times thanks to our faith in God’s power over any adversity we may face! It truly is one of those logos that will never go out of style regardless of how much time passes by since its introduction back in 1951; something which makes us proud here at Holy Cross Athletics Department every single day!
