Q and A with Williams
Why were you initially interested in Marshall University?
I was drawn to Marshall for its Public Relations program and the opportunity to be a member of an NCAA Division I swimming & diving team.
What was your favorite part of your recruiting trip?
In addition to meeting the team, I really enjoyed attending the men's basketball game. The come-from-behind win against WKU was very exciting!
