Renovated Alumni Gymnasium In the Fall of 2012, Alumni Gymnasium reopened to competition after a summer of renovations. On July 25, 2007, Rider Athletics unveiled a new Bronc logo. Only the fourth Rider Athletics logo in history, the original Roughrider logo was designed by the legendary Clair Bee 80 years ago and was last used in 1989 when Rider switched to an upright Bronc. When Rider gained University status in 1994, a U was incorporated into the logo. Due to a flood in August, 2009, the Alumni Gym floor was completely replaced with the gym reopening for competition in November, 2009. Same Name, New Website In January, 2008, the Rider Department of Athletics unveiled the redesigned GoBroncs.com website and the site, through a year-long process was updated again with a redesign that launched November 21, 2011. Through a partnership with NeuLion, we are now able to offer more content (over 80,000 pages and counting), and BroncVision which steams (audio and video) for the home men s basketball games, women s basketball games and wrestling matches (except for televised events). With the evolution of the site, other Rider sporting events were added in 2010-11 (men s and women s soccer and field hockey, along with volleyball). Enhanced LiveStats via GameTracker is also offered for all Rider home events in men s and women s soccer, field hockey, volleyball, men s and women s basketball, baseball and softball.
