Auburn has sports throughout the year for every fan. A member of the Southeastern Conference, Auburn has 21 NCAA Division I-A athletic teams—nine men’s and 12 women’s. Auburn’s athletic teams are known as the Tigers, with burnt orange and navy blue as its official colors. The symbol of the Auburn spirit is a golden eagle named Nova—War Eagle VII—and our costumed mascot is a tiger named Aubie.
A lengthy list of national athletic titles finds itself at home here. Auburn has won a number of national championships in recent years as the men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams continued their successes and their members earned significant recognition in the Olympics. The AU equestrian and women’s track and field teams also brought home recent national championships. Auburn’s lovable and mischievous mascot, Aubie, has won five University Cheerleader Association mascot challenges and was inducted into the Mascot Hall of Fame in August 2006.
