Jerry Richardson
Jerry Richardson was a high school basketball star from Texas. Due to a bad relationship with his high school coach and athletic director, he was prevented from being recruited by college athletic scouts. Richardson finally received a track scholarship and went on to receive a Masters degree from Louisiana Tech. Unable to find a teaching job, Richardson was finally hired by Shiprock to teach English and he eventually began coaching the girls basketball team in 1982. In five years, he successfully led the Lady Chieftains to the state championships.
