Head Coach

1st Season - Eastern Oregon University (2000)


 

The 2009-1010 season will mark the first as head coach for Williams.  In his five seasons as assistant Williams has seen the Mounties go from a ninth place finish in 2004-2005 (4-22) to back to back conference champions in just five years.  In 2007-2008 the Mounties made their first National Tournament appearance in more than 30 years, advancing to the "sweet sixteen".  Most recently, Williams and the Mountaineers returned to the national tournament and finished a single point shy of the final four, falling to eventual NAIA National Champion Oklahoma Wesleyan in the "elite eight"..

 

Prior to returning to Eastern Oregon University, Williams had four very successful seasons as the head girls basketball coach at La Grande High School.  During this time Williams led the Tigers to the OSAA 3A basketball state tournament three times.  During those three years the Tigers made appearances in the state semi-final games, with a second-place finish in 2001-02.  After the 2001-02 season, Williams was named The Oregonian newspaper’s 3A Coach of the Year, and was twice named Greater Oregon Coach of the Year.

 

Williams graduated from Eastern Oregon in 2000 with a Bachelor of Science in Physical Education and Health.
