| COACH PETE RICHARDSON |
BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- Former Southern football coach Pete Richardson is going into another hall of fame.
Richardson, who already is in the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame and the University of Dayton Hall of Fame, has been selected for induction to the Clarence E. “Big House” Gaines Athletic Hall of Fame at Winston-Salem State University.
He’ll be inducted with six other individuals and one team in a ceremony Oct. 9 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The 2015 class also will be honored at halftime of Winston-Salem State’s home football game against Johnson C. Smith the next day.
Richardson coached WSSU from 1988-92, and they won three Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association championships (1988, ’90 and ’91). His record was 41-14-1.
“I was kind of surprised because that was a long time ago, but I’m excited,” Richardson said. “That’s where I started out and where I learned the core of an organization to be a successful coach.
