Plans Changed For Dedication Of Century’s Anthony Pleasant Sports Complex
August 19, 2010
Plans now call for the Town of Century to dedicate the Anthony Pleasant Sports Complex next spring rather than this fall.
Pleasant was hired this year as the defensive line coach for the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs, making him unavailable during the football season.
The 22 acre park was named after Century native Anthony Pleasant (pictured), a former pro football player selected in the third round of the 1990 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns. During his 14 year NFL career, Pleasant played for the Browns, the Baltimore Ravens, the Atlanta Falcons, the New York Jets, the San Francisco 49ers and the New England Patriots. He played a total of 202 NFL games and racked up 58 sacks and two interceptions and a defensive end.

anthony is an awesome person!
Way to go Anthony, Century is very proud of you. It makes me proud to know that my dad coached you in Little League Football on Saturdays. He was proud of the accomplishments you’ve made, I’m sure he’s looking down on you now. Good luck this NFL season…
