Meaning and History
Hofstra University sports emblems show an evolution of styles. Option 1988-2001 It looks like a white circle seal with a blue outline and the word “Hofstra Pride.” The center is the emblem of the Netherlands, which is represented by heraldic lions, a shield, a crown, and the Latin motto “Je maintiendrai.”
From 2001 to 2004, the same round logo was used, but with different motives. The teams’ names were preserved, and a real lion and lioness replaced the symbolic coat of arms. They peep out of a dark blue ring with golden lines around the edges. In 2005, a modern interpretation of the logo appeared. Now the lions are drawn abstractly. Their profiles overlap one another, forming a holistic silhouette. The words “Hofstra Pride” are written below in a blue trapeze.
