I WHY WERE THE EXPLORERS I Keith D'Oria Athletic Communications La Salle University's nickname — The Explorers — was erroneously bestowed by a sports writer covering a La Salle football game (La Salle 1 plaved intercollegiate football from 1931-41) on campus sometime during the '30s. He thought that the school was named after the famed French explorer of North America. I 4 In reality, the school was named after St. John Baptist de La Salle, the French educator and founder of the Christian Brothers. Despite the error, the nickname has remained.
