 | | The Stanford sports teams are now officially referred to as the Stanford Cardinal (the bright red color, not the bird), but the band's mascot, "The Tree", has become associated with the school in general. |
 | | Sports include archery, badminton, cricket, cycling, equestrian, ice hockey, judo, kayaking, men's lacrosse, polo, rugby, squash, skiing, taekwondo, triathlon and Ultimate Frisbee, and in some cases the teams have historically performed quite well. |
 | | For instance, the men's Ultimate Frisbee team won a nation championship in 2002, and the women's team won in 2003 and 2004. |
