The Colorado State University–Pueblo ThunderWolves (shortened to CSU–Pueblo ThunderWolves in their athletics context) are the athletic teams at Colorado State University–Pueblo. The ThunderWolves are a member of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference. They were previously known as the University of Southern Colorado Indians and then the University of Southern Colorado ThunderWolves. The program includes 7 men's sports: baseball, basketball, football, golf, soccer, tennis, and wrestling. The women's program has 8 sports: basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, volleyball and track. Dropped following the 1984 season, football returned in 2008 and the team posted a 4-6 record. The ThunderWolves won the 2014 NCAA Division II Football National Championship, its first in football program history, by blanking previously undefeated Minnesota State University, Mankato 13-0.
In 1984, the school ended its baseball program due to budget cuts.
In 1994, Dan DeRose, the athletic director, re-established the school's baseball program and had a new stadium complex built for baseball.
CSU-Pueblo saw the return of football in 2008 with the construction and completion of its new football stadium, the Neta and Eddie DeRose Thunderbowl.
CSU-Pueblo announced further restoration of athletic programs under new president Lesley Di Mare.
The ThunderWolves mascot is Wolfie.
