Today's football team

The all-freshman football team won its first game on October 23, and the name “Hurricanes” was used for the first time along with the school colors: burnt orange, Biscayne green and white. Orange symbolizes the fruit of the tree, green represents the leaves and white the blossoms.

Dr. Bowman Foster Ashe was elected as the University’s first president on November 3, and the following year (1927) the University News (now The Miami Hurricane) was released, along with the first Ibis yearbook.
