Coast Guard Bears
The United States Coast Guard Academy's intercollegiate sports teams are called the ''Bears'' and they compete in the Division III of the NCAA, as members of the New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference and associate members of the New England Football Conference in football.
They field 26 varsity teams.
== Origin of the name ==
The academy nickname is the Bears, after the USRC ''Bear'', which made a dramatic rescue in Alaska in 1897, shortly after the opening of the academy.
In 1926, then-Cadet Stephen Evans (a future superintendent of the academy) brought a live bear to the academy and named it Objee for "Objectionable Presence." The tradition of keeping a live bear as the mascot was continued until the City of New London petitioned for its removal in 1984.
