St. Cloud State Traditions:History of the NicknameThe.Husky.Nickname:.St..Cloud.State's.nickname.has.gone. through. several. changes. over. the. years.. Early.nicknames. included. "Normals,". "Teachers,". "Bear.Cats,"."Peds,".and."Flying.Clouds."
There. are. several. theories. about. how. the. nickname."Huskies".began.to.be.used..One.says.that.it.is.a.result.of. a. student. contest.. Another. suggests. that. the. name.originated.with.the.football.team..
There.was.a.story.in.the.February.4,.1938,.edition.of.the.College.Chronicle.which.referred. to. the."football.huskies.".Since.huskies.was.not.capitalized.in.the.story,.the. author. could. have. been. referring. to. the. team's.size,.and.this.possibly.led.to.the.nickname..Another.theory.is.that.the.nickname.originated.within.the. football. team.. "I. think. it. occurred. during. Coach.Kasch's.days.as.football.coach.(1935-42),".said.John.Weisman,. former. SCSU. Dean. of. Men. and. former.coach.. "The. team. just. started. calling. themselves. the."Huskies.".
Why.the.name.was.chosen.or.who.exactly.selected.it.remains.unclear..The.name.could.have.been.intended.to.mean."burly,.robust.or. large,"."one.that. is.husky,".or."a.heavily.coated.working.dog.of.the.arctic.region.”
Perhaps. the. nickname. was. meant. to. encompass. all.three. meanings.. Regardless. of. its. origin,. the. Husky.nickname. continues. to. represent. SCSU. as. a. symbol.and.image.of.strength.
The St. Cloud State RouserOh,.here.we.are,.the.gang.and.all,to.cheer.our.team.to.victory.SCSU.has.heard.the.call,We're.here.to.show.our.loyalty,.RAH!.RAH!Come.on.team.fight,.We'll.win.this.game,and.to.our.colors.we'll.be.true.We'll.sing.our.song,.both.loud.and.long,to.victory.—.S.C.S.U..
The St. Cloud State HymnSing. to. thee. our. Alma. Mater,. High. on. oak-crowned.banks,.Emblem.of.our.search.for.knowledge,.Symbol.of. our. youthful. ranks,. Filled. with. fires. of. true. ambi-tion,.Let.us.ever.be;.Loyal.to.thy.fine.tradition,.Hail.St..Cloud,.to.thee.
By. the. river’s. flowing. water,. By. its. islands. fair,. may.the. loyal. sons. and. daughters,. thy. enduring. friend-ship. share.. May. they. with. sincere. ambition,. through.the.years.e’er.be;.Loyal. to. thy.fine. tradition,.Hail.St..Cloud,.to.thee.

2010 NCAA TOURNAMENT REVIEW - HUSKIES PLACE 7TH: St. Cloud State wrestling’s Jacob Kahnke earned a fourth place finish at 285-pounds to earn All-America status and lead the Huskies at the NCAA Division II
championships on March 12-13 in Omaha, Neb.Gabe Suarez (141), Tad Merritt (165) and Shamus O’Grady (174) also earned All-America honors for SCSU. As a team, the Huskies placed 7th overall with 44.5 points. Host Nebraska-Omaha won the tournament with 131 points to repeat as DII champs, while Augustana
was second with 72 points. Upper Iowa (67), UN-Kearney (67), UW-Parkside (55.5) and Minnesota State (52.5) completed the top seven teams. Of note, this marks the Huskies best team finish at the NCAA championships since a 7th place finish in 1983 - more than 25 years ago.Listed below are the results from the individual weight brackets for SCSU:133-Pounds: SCSU’s Shane McQuade suffered a 13-9 loss to Cory Bowers of Gannon in first round action. McQuade will now advance to action in the wrestle-
backs. McQuade won his opening match in the wrestlebacks with a 6:00 pinfall against Jan Steven Ulinksi of Findlay. McQuade bowed out of tournament action in the next round with an 8-0 loss to Scott Berens of Central Oklahoma.
141-pounds: Gabe Suarez posts an 8-4 victory over Daniel Genetin of Ashland. Suarez then suffered a tough 8-3 loss to top seed Jeremy Parker of Limestone in the quarterfinal round. Suarez stayed alive to advance to Saturday action with a big 8-2 win over Dallas Evans of Shippensburg. On March 13, Suarez opened the day with a 15-6 loss to Andre Harrison of Fort Hays State. In the match for seventh place, Suarez lost a 15-4 decision to Josh Hensley of Adams State. Suarez gained All-America notice for his 8th place finish at the national tournament.
157-pounds: SCSU’s John Sundgren falls 6-5 against Jon Jackson of Ashland in first round action. In the wrestlebacks, Sundgren picked up a 16-10 victory over Kyle Francis of Western State. Sundgren completed his run at the nationals with a close 6-5 loss to Michael Williams of UNC-Pembroke.
165-pounds: Tad Merritt advances to the second round of the championship bracket with a 3:14 pinfall over Wisconsin-Parkside’s Matt Gille. In the quarterfinal match, Merritt suffered a 6-5 loss to Victor Carazo of Grand Canyon. In the wrestlebacks, Merritt stayed on track with a 6-2 decision over Jake Varilek of Grand Can-yon. On Saturday, Merritt gained a 2:08 fall against Gavin Nelson of Augustana in the consolation round. Merritt then lost a tough 7-6 decision against Ryan Pankoke of UNO. In the battle for fifth place, Merritt trailed early in the match, but he rebounded to gain a pinfall victory over Taylor May of Nebraska-Kearney at 6:24. This mark’s the second consecutive season that Merritt has gained All-America honors.
174-Pounds: SCSU’s Shamus O’Grady rolls to a 16-4 major decison over Zack Frazier of Western State. O’Grady maintained his title hopes in the quarterfinals with a 6:21 pinfall victory over top seed J.J. Davis of UNC-Pembroke. O’Grady ended his run in the championship bracket with a 14-6 loss to Luke Rynish of UW-Park-side. In the wrestlebacks, O’Grady lost a 10-6 match against Mitch Norton of Upper Iowa. O’Grady lost to Christopher Barrick of Shippensburg in the battle for fifth place by a score of 6-3. O’Grady also gained All-America status with his sixth place finish at the tournament.
