is a steady workhorse back that can control the game with consistency. He is a straight ahead runner that is tough to bring down. He follows his blockers extremely well and has good vision. Not one to avoid contact, Richardson is always fighting for extra yards. After 410 yards in his sophomore season and 746 as a junior, expect Joseph to go over 1,000 in his senior year.

Joe Richardson received many accolades in 2023; 1st Team All League, 4th Team All State and All Western New York Honorable Mention. He displays patience when following his blockers and is an explosive, tough runner between the tackles. His speed makes him a nightmare in the open field. In 2 years on varsity, Richards has improved every season going from 410 yards in 2022 to 746 yards as a Junior. In his Senior year he should be looking for 1,000 yards and several collegiate offers.

has been a staple for Starpoint’s success the last two seasons; rushing for 1,156 yards and 16 touchdowns. He is great at finding the open holes. He follows his blockers with supreme patience and his excellent balance mixed with his great cut step makes him tough to bring down. On the defensive side of the ball, Joseph is listed as a Linebacker but he possesses the versatility to play Safety. An excellent blitzer, Richardson has fluid hips and a nose for the ball, racking up 31 tackles (7 for loss) and 2 interceptions (1 for a touchdown) as a Junior. The book is still out on what his future holds, but Richardson’s senior year will be one to watch out for.
