Bulldogs Wordmark Logo
The Gonzaga Bulldogs have a long and storied history in NCAA basketball, and their iconic wordmark logo has been an integral part of that story. The original version of the logo was created by artist Bill Womack in 1991 for the school's first season as a Division I program.
Since then, there have been several versions of the Gonzaga Bulldogs’ wordmark logo over time. In 1997, they updated it to include “Gonzaga University” below the bulldog head graphic with an italicized font style along with two stars above it symbolizing excellence on both sides of its mission: academics and athletics. This version is still used today but has seen some minor tweaks since its introduction such as changing from black-and-white to full color or adding additional elements like paws underneath each lettering for more emphasis when needed.
In 2013, they released another update which included small changes such as making all letters capitalized instead of just certain ones (i..e GONZAGA UNIVERSITY) while keeping other aspects like stars intact; this design is also still used today alongside previous versions depending on what context/use case it will be featured in (i..e print media vs digital).
Overall, despite subtle differences between iterations throughout the time period, one thing remains constant –the boldness & strength represented by their iconic bulldog mascot coupled with the modernity & sophistication found within the overall design aesthetic make up what we know now as the official Gonzaga Bulldogs Wordmark Logo!
