Officials in the Athletics department confirmed Friday that new uniforms in navy blue and gold are on order.
The Board of Trustees’ decision to rebrand the college came in January of 2011.
The long-standing maroon and gold colors of athletic uniforms will be replaced by navy and gold, according to Carl Heinrich, assistant dean, Athletics. For now, teams will still be called the Cavaliers.
Updates will follow with further information.
