Toreros Defined The University of San Diego, which sponsors sixteen NCAA Di vision I interco llegiate teams, competes under the athletic nickname ofToreros. In 1961, the Most Reverend Bishop Buddy, the fo und ing father of USO, announced that the schoo l's ni ckname wou ld change from Pioneers to Toreros. "The name Toreros is keeping with the friend ly re lationship whi ch exists between San Diego and Mex ico," His Exce ll ency sa id at the time. Torero comes from the spanish term toro , the bu ll, and from the word torear, to fight bulls. A ll of the contestants in the ring are ca lled toreros. Torero is a genera l term describing a bullfighter and sign ifi es courage, honor and fidel ity. USO student-ath letes, li ke the Torero, represent a w illingness to stand alone in the ring and accept the cha ll enge. The 2000-200 I school year marks the 40th anni versary with Toreros as the officia l nickname for USO athletic teams.
