From Hall of Honor press release dated Sept. 13, 2018:

David Richardson broke new ground as a student-athlete as the founder of the Tiger men’s lacrosse program. After enjoying great success as a lacrosse player in high school, Richardson almost immediately decided to bring the sport to Wittenberg after arriving on campus. He started by creating a new club team in 1964, personally recruiting more than 20 players, obtaining all necessary equipment, and acting as a player-coach when the games started the following year. Over the next three years, the team was consistently competitive and built a solid reputation, leading to the creation of an intercollegiate program and the hiring of future Athletics Hall of Honor inductee Dick Fahrney as its first coach in 1968. A native of Rochester, NY, Richardson currently resides in Herndon, Va.
