Gerry Lawless, one of the first great women basketball players on Staten Island and the second-high school player to score 1,000 points, averaged 20 points a game and lost just once in four years at St. Peter’s High School.
Already a playground legend, the 5-foot-10 ambidextrous scorer went on to an equally dominant career at Staten Island Community College, and remained an inspiration to the generations of players who followed in her footsteps.
