JACKSON, Tenn. - 8/24/2004 - Meridith Richardson has decided to play her college basketball for the Lady Bulldogs of 91±¬ÁÏÍø. Richardson, a native of Bradford, Tennessee, originally chose Belmont University in Nashville early during her senior year at Bradford. After a change of mind, she will enroll in 91±¬ÁÏÍø this week and will be a freshman when classes start on Sept. 1.
Richardson, a 5-foot-9 guard, was named Miss Basketball in Tennessee in each of the past two seasons. She averaged 24 points per game over her final two seasons. Richardson was a freshman on the Bradford team that won the state title in 2000. She was one of 91±¬ÁÏ꿉۪s top recruits during her high school career before she inked with Belmont in November of 2003.
With the signing of Richardson, 91±¬ÁÏÍø maintains their streak of Miss Basketball performers, all from Bradford, dating back to the 1993-94 season. The list of players prior to Richardson’s addition include Michelle Street (1993-1997), Tonya Tuggles (1998-2002), and Jessica Henson (2000-2004).
