Great South Athletic Conference Logo PNG
The Great South Athletic Conference (GSAC) was founded in 1999 and ceased to exist in 2016. It was an NCAA-affiliated intercollegiate athletic conference (Division III). While originally most of its member institutions came from the southeastern United States, later members from other states joined the conference.
Meaning and history
1999 – 2010
For the first ten years, the Great South Athletic Conference has been using a very simple and boring badge. It was a horizontally stretched gray oval in a light blue outline, with the two-leveled black lettering in a slanted sans-serif typeface set over it and underlined by a white triangular element, coming through the border from the right and pointing to the left. The upper line of the title case inscription was larger than the bottom one, and this looked very strict and simple.
2011 – Today
The Great South Athletic Conference logo featured the abbreviation “GSAC” in large block capitals followed by the full name of the organization in smaller letters.
The design was based on a pretty calm palette dominated by dark blue. You could also see the sun adding a bright orange accent. The top of the sun was orange, while the other half was blue.
