Tigers Alternate Logo
As sports fans, we know that a team's logo is a crucial element of its identity. The symbol represents the team and is proudly displayed on merchandise, jerseys, and even the players' helmets. The Towson Tigers are no exception, and their alternate logo history is a fascinating journey reflecting the team's evolution.
The Towson Tigers, or the Towson University Tigers, are the athletic teams representing Towson University in Towson, Maryland. The university's sports program has a long and illustrious history, and the team's logos have played an integral role in its identity.
The earliest known logo for the Towson Tigers was introduced in the 1960s and featured a simple yet bold design. It consisted of a tiger's head in profile, with the letters "TU" in bold font above it. This logo was used for several years and became synonymous with the team's fierce and competitive spirit.
In the 1980s, the Towson Tigers underwent a rebranding process, and a new logo was introduced. This logo featured a more stylized and modern depiction of a tiger's head, with sharper lines and a more aggressive look. The letters "TU" were replaced with the word "Tigers" in bold font, and the logo was used for over two decades.
In the early 2000s, the Towson Tigers' athletic department introduced an alternate logo for special occasions and merchandise. This logo, known as the "Tiger Paw," was a simplified version of the tiger's head, with just the eyes, nose, and mouth visible. It also featured the letters "TU" in a circular design around the paw. This logo was an instant hit among fans and is still widely used today.
2010 the Towson Tigers underwent another rebranding process, and a new primary logo was introduced. This logo featured a sleek and modernized version of the tiger's head, with the letters "TU" in bold font above it. The new logo also incorporated the university's black, gold, and white colors, giving it a bold and dynamic look.
