Sharks Primary Logo
The LIU Sharks have a long and storied history of athletic success; their primary logo has been an integral part of that success. The original logo was created in the early 1980s to represent the school's commitment to excellence on and off the field. It featured a shark with its mouth open, ready to take on any challenge. This symbolized LIU's willingness to never back down from any obstacle or opponent they faced during competition.
Over time, minor changes were made, such as adding more detail to the shark's body or changing its color scheme for different sports teams at LIU. Still, it remained relatively unchanged until 2011, when it underwent its most significant redesign yet. This new version incorporated bolder lines, giving it a sharper look while also ensuring that all elements stayed true to what had made up this iconic image since day one - strength and determination in everything they did!
Additionally, by incorporating modern design elements into this classic symbol, such as gradients and brighter colors like blue & yellow, these subtle changes helped bring out even more personality than ever! Nowadays, you can find variations of this logo used across multiple platforms, including social media accounts associated with various teams throughout Long Island University’s athletics program – showing how far-reaching their influence is within college sports today!
