What is Centenary Gentlemen?
Centenary Gentlemen is the collegiate athletic program of Centenary College, a private arts college in Louisiana, United States. The program is composed of 17 teams, where men and women compete in various sports disciplines, including Basketball, Soccer, Tennis, Cross Country, and others.
As for the visual identity, the Centenary Gentlemen athletic program from the Louisiana liberal arts college has been very loyal, keeping the logo, designed in the 1980s for more than three decades by now. This is pretty understandable, as the badge looks very bright and progressive, not overloaded by extra elements, and stays eye-catching on uniforms of any color.
1985 — Today
The Centenary Gentlemen logo, designed in 1985, is executed in a red, white, and black color palette, and can be placed on red or white backgrounds. The main element of the badge is a solid red circle in a black outline, with an extra-bold white capital “C”, also outlined in black. The “C” featured a square shape with rounded angles and looks stable and powerful.
The full inscription in all capitals of an extended sans-serif typeface is written around the emblem, repeating its circular shape, with the “Centenary College”, arched on the upper part, divided from the “Athletics” at the bottom by two solid red triangles, pointing to the red roundel. When placed on a red background, the triangles get invisible.
