Pierce was named the 1979 Natchitoches Parish “Man of the Year” by the American Legion, was presented a lifetime membership in the LSWA and was the first-ever Mac Russo Award recipient from the LSWA for contributions to the organization’s ideals and purpose in 1983. He received a vast array of recognitions and honors, including his 2000 enshrinement in the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame with the Louisiana Sports Writers Association’s Distinguished Service Award in Sports Journalism, his 2018 induction in the N-Club Hall of Fame for athletics at NSU as a Leadership Award recipient, and his 2021 enshrinement in the Long Purple Line, the highest honor Northwestern issues to its alumni. Pierce served a term as president of the Southland. In 1993 the New Orleans Times-Picayune named him one of the 20 “Most Influential People in Sports in Louisiana.” He helped guide Northwestern into four different athletic conferences: the Gulf South (1972), Trans-America (1980), Gulf Star (1983) and its current affiliation, the Southland Conference (since 1987). He was chairman and spearheaded annual inductions from 1971-90, a tenure that ultimately led to the 2013 opening of a $23 million, 27,000-square foot museum in downtown Natchitoches, a facility that has received international acclaim. Pierce was the driving force behind establishing modern operations at NSU and in Natchitoches for the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame. He held tenure on the faculty at Northwestern. Pierce was a key advocate for over a half-century with governors and legislators not only for the best interests of Northwestern and Natchitoches, but for the region and especially higher education in the state, particularly the University of Louisiana System that serves nine public institutions and nearly 100,000 students annually. He also was influential to another Hollywood production, the critically-acclaimed “Man in the Moon” 1991 film shot locally that was the debut of Academy Award-winning actress Reese Witherspoon in a cast that included Sam Shepard and Tess Harper. That film has since attracted countless visitors to the community while spearheading transformational development of a vibrant downtown area. His behind-the-scenes contributions were integral to the production of the hit 1989 major motion picture “Steel Magnolias,” filmed entirely in Natchitoches, written by NSU graduate Robert Harling and starring Academy Award winners Julia Roberts, Sally Field, Olympia Dukakis and Shirley MacLaine, and entertainer/actress Dolly Parton. That role was the cornerstone, but hardly the only aspect of his service-filled life. He oversaw alumni and athletic operations and other aspects of the university for decades, and was named VP for External Affairs in 1990 by Dr. Pierce, 83, was executive vice president and professor of journalism at Northwestern, serving under his ninth president, Dr. Incomparable impact over 57 years at his beloved alma mater, Northwestern State University, and in his adopted hometown of Natchitoches, along with significant statewide influence in higher education and sports were hallmarks of Jerry Pierce, who died Tuesday in Natchitoches after a brief illness.
