Prior to 1924, with no official athletics nickname, University publications and news media often referred to Creighton athletic teams by the school's colors – the "White and Blue," or vice versa. Because of Creighton's location atop a bluff, the team was occasionally designated unofficially as the "Hilltoppers," but the name lost favor because at least six other teams in the country went by the same nickname. At the behest of Creighton's Athletics Board and Alumni Association, the Omaha Bee newspaper coordinated a public contest in late 1923 to select a nickname and mascot for Creighton University athletic teams. After reviewing 200 entries, the Athletics Board decided upon "Bluejays" because the color of the bird was in keeping with school colors.
Top those Hilltoppers!

Man, do I wish there was no COVID right now. I could use a trip to the "motherland" and a visit with my dad and sister. Next season, for sure! For now, I have to settle for some trash talk with my brother-in-law about the game via text.

Wonder if season ticket sales will go "through the roof" for next year.
Some will still be a bit shy about packing a closed arena amidst screaming fans, others will just want to be there.

Will join you folks in 2nd half (I hope!).
Very disappointed that Geno turned down my request to delay tonight's game until after my seminar was over....

Creighton likes those deep threes. Glad they are not falling.

Nika with a steal and a layup. In double digits already with 4:38 gone in the first quarter!

Our guys are shooting 80% on threes vs. 57% overall. Go figure.

I still don't see why that Creighton 3 at the buzzer didn't count. I mean, I know, but it sure looked good.
