From the Georgetown website:
Note they say "it is suggested". Even they don't know what a Hoya is.
quote:
Many years ago, when all Georgetown students were required to study Greek and Latin, the University's teams were nicknamed "The Stonewalls." It is suggested that a student, using Greek and Latin terms, started the cheer "Hoya Saxa!", which translates into "What Rocks!" The name proved popular and the term "Hoyas" was eventually adopted for all Georgetown teams.
Note they say "it is suggested". Even they don't know what a Hoya is.
