Meaning and History

Houston Baptist Huskies Logo History


Given the nickname of the teams, it is logical that their emblem shows a husky. More precisely, only his head, which is turned in full face. Artists dispensed with detail, emphasizing only the characteristic dark lines on the forehead and the specific shape of the eyes. Thanks to this, it immediately becomes clear which breed the dog belongs to.

Above is the abbreviation “HBU” – an abbreviation for the phrase “Houston Baptist University.” The lower part of the emblem is occupied by the word “Huskies,” decorated with vertical and horizontal serifs. Both labels are located diagonally and are read from bottom to top. The palette is dominated by blue. Almost no orange: they circled the letters “HBU.”
