Team Name

The sports teams at the C.W. Post Campus of Long
Island University are called the Pioneers. The name was
coined in 1955 as the first students of C.W. Post eagerly set
out to establish the campus’ traditions. They chose the
nickname of the Pioneers because the establishment of a new
private college during the post World War II era was truly a
national innovation. The students also felt like pioneers as
they created rules and traditions from the ground up.
Today, C.W. Post has 17 varsity sports, including football,
basketball, baseball, swimming, lacrosse and soccer.
