Terrianne Young-Brown
Basketball (1978-82)

Terrianne Young-Brown was a key component of Fran Coslet’s powerful Wildcat basketball teams of the 1970s and early 1980s. During her four years on the hardwood for Chico State, the Wildcats posted a cumulative won-loss record of 68-36 and captured the 1979-90 Golden State Conference championship.

Terrianne improved every season she played under coach Coslet, culminating in an outstanding senior campaign that saw her honored as the Golden State Conference Athlete of the Year and Chico State’s Outstanding Senior Female Athlete of the Year. Additionally, she was named to the District 8 Academic All-America squad by the College Sports Information Directors of America.

After graduating with a degree in Economics and a double minor in Collective Bargaining and Business Administration, Terrianne began working at the NoRTEC, a federally funded job training agency. She is currently the Program Operations Director for this program. This past summer, Terrianne returned to school to work on entering a credential program so she can teach high school economics, history, and government.

Terrianne’s love for basketball has not waned. She began coaching hoops at Paradise Junior High in 1995 and became the coach of the freshman squad at Paradise High in 2000. In the upcoming 2004-05 season, Terrianne will take over the junior varsity program and will also continue to assist at the varsity level.
