The Saint Joseph's Hawks are the athletic teams that represent Saint Joseph's University of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[2] The Hawks compete in Division I of the National Collegiate Athletic Association as a member of the Atlantic 10 Conference[3] and of the Philadelphia Big 5.[4] The school also has intramurals and extramurals, the latter of which compete within the City 6 (the six major universities in Philadelphia). The school is mostly known for its men's basketball team. The Hawk became the school's mascot in 1929. It first flapped its wings at a basketball game in 1956 in a win over La Salle University. The Saint Joseph's school colors are crimson and gray.
