Logo of a defunct college football team, the George Washington University Colonials, whose program existed from 1881 until 1966, when it shut down for various reasons, including not having a suitable stadium to play in. They won their only bowl game appearance, capturing the Sun Bowl in 1956. Colonial alumni who played pro football include Mike Sommer, Bob Nowaskey, Garry Lyle and Hall of Famer Tuffy Leemans.
