About The Central Michigan Chippewas
Initially the logo of the school athletics was an Indian Spear, but now it has been changed to a stylized block letter "C". In the year 1995, an IET Department undergraduate student designed this current logo and it was first used in the year 1997.
The success scale of Central Michigan Chippewas has been worth appreciating. CMU's football team won the second NCAA Division II national championship in the year 1974 by defeating the University of Delaware, where the score was 54-14. The team was voted as the national champion in the Associated Press College Division poll. The Chips have also been national runners-up twice.
The Kelly/Shorts Stadium is the home field of the Central Michigan University and it is situated in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. The stadium was inaugurated in the year 1972 and has a seating capacity for 30,199 spectators. It was initially named after R. Perry Shorts of Saginaw, a generous donor to the stadium project and later renamed to include the name of Kenneth "Bill" Kelly, a longtime football coach under whose able guidance the teams met with incredible success.
