Williams closed the regular season portion of her sophomore campaign in grand fashion.  She averaged 22.0 points, 13.5 rebounds, and 7.0 steals per contest over a two-game sample against the first- and second-place finishers in the NEC standings.  In the regular season finale at Quinnipiac, a 77-71 triumph, the Flash’s second-year post player did something that had not been done in NEC play in nearly four full years. Williams turned in the first triple-double the NEC has seen since Robert Morris’ Chinata Nesbit completed the feat during the 2008 NEC Tournament.  Going up against a team that features the NCAA steals leader, Williams looked like an accomplished larcenist.  In addition to her 18 points and 15 rebounds, she made 12 steals, a mark that tied Quinnipiac’s Felicia Barron for the top spot in the NEC’s all-time single-game record book.  Two days earlier, Williams put up 26 points, 12 rebounds, two steals, and two blocks in a narrow defeat to Sacred Heart, which went onto earn the No. 1 seed in the upcoming NEC Tournament.  For the week, Williams shot 51.4 percent (19-of-37) from the floor.
