The University of San Diego, which sponsors sixteen NCAA Division I intercollegiate teams, competes under the athletic nickname 'Toreros.' In 1961, the Most Reverend Bishop Buddy, the founding father of USO, announced that the school's nickname would change from Pioneers to Toreros. "The name Toreros is keeping with the friendly rela– tionship which exists between San Diego and Mexico," His Excellency said at the time. Torero comes from the Span– ish term 'Toro', the bull , and from the word 'Torear,' to fight bulls. All of the contestants in the ring are ca lled 'Toreros.' Torero is a general term describing a bullfighter and signifies courage, honor and fidelity. USO student-athletes, like the Torero, represent a willingness to stand alone in the ring and accept the challenge. The 2005-06 school year marks the 45 th season with Toreros as the official nickname for USO athletic teams. www.usdtoreros.com
