PREVIEW: Gee-Gees to host UQAM for the first time this season

Note

Founded in 1848, the University of Ottawa adopted Garnet and Grey as its official colours and like many nineteenth-century institutions the school’s teams were initially known only by the colours. Eventually, a connection was made between the shorthand “GG” and “Gee-Gee”, the common British nickname for a racehorse. The unique Gee-Gees name and iconic logo known today is a result of over 170 years of history in Ottawa
