Marching Proudly ever forward,
To victory and to fame.

Azusa Fight Song

They always call us Azusa Aztecs
We always have a fighting team.
We can run and kick and throw,
Give us the ball and just look at us go.
It's hip hooray for Azusa Aztecs
We're out to get you tonight
So give a great big cheer
For the Aztecs of the year
Azusa Aztecs watch us fight!

A to Z in the USA

 1 Comment on A to Z in the USA

The City of Azusa was founded in 1887 and incorporated as a general law city on December 29, 1898. Many think Azusa came from the term “A to Z in the USA” but my research shows Azusa was derived from a native American name.

The first recorded reference to Azusa was found in the diary of Father Juan Crespi, he  referred to the area as “The Azusa” in his diary. The first known residents were the Shoshonean-Indian, locally known as the Gabrieleno when the area of Azusa was first inhabited by white immigrants and homesteaders. The Shoshonean dubbed their village Asuksa-gna, meaning “Skunk Hill”, for the skunk population there. It is said Azusa was derived from the native American name. The Spanish settlers called it El Susa.

Azusans like to say that Azusa stands for everything from A to Z in the U.S.A. Click links below to share your memory of something “Azusa” from A to Z in the USA.
