Dalhousie Tigers

Overview
"Tigers" is the name of the sports teams of Dalhousie University located in Halifax, Nova Scotia. They are members of the Atlantic University Sport (AUS) conference and U Sports (formerly known as CIS).

History
Dalhousie joined the Maritime Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) in time for the 1920-21 season. The conference changed names in 1968-69 to the Atlantic Intercollegiate Athletic Association (AIAA), in 1973-74 to the Atlantic Universities Athletic Association (AUAA), and finally in 1998-99 to the present AUS.

From 1920-21 until 1936-37, the Tigers were also in the Halifax City League and, when they advanced, the Maritimes Senior Playoffs leading to the Allan Cup.

Of note the Tigers won two league championships in 1922, the HCL and the MIAA. After winning 3 straight MIAA titles in 1921, 1922, and 1923, they never won another conference title until 1979.
