Special collection featuring anniversary and vintage logos celebrates a century of Friar men’s basketball history, tradition and unforgettable moments.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (Nov. 2, 2026) — Providence College today announced the launch of its official 100 Seasons of Friar Basketball merchandise collection, a specially curated line of apparel and collectible items celebrating the program's historic milestone season.
Developed in partnership with CLC, the nation's leading collegiate licensing company and Providence College's exclusive licensing agent, the collection brings the history of Friar basketball to life through a specially designed 100th season commemorative logo created by Learfield Creative, alongside vintage Providence marks representing different eras of the program. Together, the designs celebrate the evolution of Friars basketball and give generations of fans a meaningful way to connect with the team's legacy.
The merchandise launch is part of a season-long celebration that begins with Providence's regular-season home opener against Maine on Monday, Nov. 2, at Amica Mutual Pavilion. The milestone season will honor a century of players, coaches, memorable moments and traditions that have helped shape both the Providence College program and the sport of college basketball.
"The 100th season of Providence basketball is a momentous occasion that gives us the opportunity to celebrate the generations of student-athletes, coaches and supporters who built one of the most respected programs in college basketball," said Providence College Athletic Director Steve Napolillo. "This special merchandise collection gives Friars fans a meaningful way to honor our past, celebrate our present and share in the excitement of the future of Providence basketball."
The anniversary celebration will feature the commemorative 100th season logo throughout the fan experience, including on players' shooting shirts and jerseys and on Providence's home court at Amica Mutual Pavilion. Throughout the season, the College will recognize prominent players and coaches from across the program's history, culminating in the announcement of the Providence College Centennial Team.
To celebrate the program's 100th anniversary, Providence will honor five distinct eras of Friar basketball:
The specially curated merchandise collection includes apparel and non-apparel items from leading Providence licensees, including '47 Brand, Nike, Homefield, L2, Local Hoops, Logo Brands and SLAM.
"College basketball traditions are passed down through generations, and few programs embody that connection quite like Providence," said Nicole Armentrout, senior vice president of marketing at CLC. This collection brings together iconic marks from across the program's history, giving Friars fans a unique way to celebrate the moments, memories and traditions that make Providence basketball so special."
The Providence 100th Season of Friar Basketball collection will be available through the Providence College campus bookstore, direct-to-consumer channels from participating licensees and at Amica Mutual Pavilion throughout the season.
