Chevrons

"The club blades are cardinal with a white chevron. The oldest college clubs in Durham all feature a white chevron and cardinal is the colour of University College."

Surely the only two colleges which use a white chevron are Castle and Cuth's. Hatfield CBC is older than SCSBC and does not feature a white chevron, neither does SJCBC or SCCBC, which is also quite old by college standards, so it is just coincidence that two old college boat clubs have white chevrons and there is no real basis for this statement?
