Virginia Athletics’ identity system takes iconic elements from the University’s brand, including the Rotunda, Virginia Cavalier and V-Sabre, and reimagines them in bold and modern ways. The result is a cohesive family of brand elements that captures the strength, diversity and ethos of the Athletics program and speaks to generations of Hoos.
Please note that the use of all marks and iconography illustrated below is exclusive to Virginia Athletics, Athletics-affiliated entities and licensed vendors.

V-Sabre
Since its inception, the V-Sabre has embodied the energy and strength of Virginia Athletics – as well as the greater University Community. It will continue to be the primary logo of Virginia Athletics.

As the secondary logo, the Cavalier shield brings a sense of energy and flexibility to brand expression for Athletics.

The Cavalier personifies the excitement and spirit of our program. Hat tipped, the figure is an inclusive symbol, representing all members of the University community, regardless of gender, ethnicity, age or background.
