Rancho Cordova Sports Hall of Fame

A football and baseball star, Williams quarterbacked Cordova to a 21-3 record during a two-year varsity career enroute to an Optimist All-Star selection. A speedy baseball outfielder, Williams was a main cog on Cordova’s 1983 section title team that went 32-6. He batted .407, and stole 28 bases from the leadoff spot, breaking Max Venable’s school stolen base record. A three-year football starter for the University of Washington, Williams dominated a defense that led the Huskies to a No. 2 national ranking in 1984. Williams’ accomplishments resulted in induction into the University of Washington Sports Hall of Fame.
