Scottie Richardson wears a couple of hats at Crossroads Christian. He is the men’s basketball coach but also oversees a very successful athletic program for the entire school as athletic director. “We are coming off of the winningest fall season in the school’s history,” Richardson said on Wednesday’s SportsTalk. From success on the volleyball court to a final four finish for the boy’s soccer team, things have been going well for Crossroads.
Winter sports are now here and Crossroads is off to a great start as both girl’s and boy’s basketball are undefeated so far this season. The boys are coming off a huge victory against crosstown rival Henderson Collegiate and are now preparing for holiday tournaments.
The Colts will be heading for Wilson for one tournament and then an MLK Event in Greene County is also upcoming.
The key to all of this success, according to Richardson, is developing younger talent and use that to build on. The Colts certainly excel at that. “Our middle school girl’s basketball team has not lost since 2019,” Richardson said. With that kind of talent rising to varsity level athletics, it’s no wonder Crossroads continues to be a team opposing coaches fear when they appear on the schedule.
