Florida State University State University is an NCAA Division I school, with baseball, basketball, cross-country, diving, football, golf, swimming, tennis, track & field for men and basketball, cross-country, diving, golf, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track & field, and volleyball for women. The team nickname is the Seminoles. (The University website offers a direct link to the website of the Seminole Indian tribe.) There are four spirit teams to support the State University Athletics. There is also a university mascot, and outside groups can request performances by cheerleaders or mascots at their own event.
Sports facilities include a large football stadium, a basketball arena, a swim center, a golf course, a gymnasium, a softball field, and track and tennis facilities.
Florida State has long been a powerhouse of NCAA football, and their state rivalry with Florida has long intrigued the nation like few modern gridiron rivalries can. The Seminoles won two national football championships in the 90s. Obviously football plays an important part in the social life of all FSU students.
