Williams scored a career-high 33 points and pulled down 17 rebounds in the Seahawks’ 77-65 overtime win over Coppin State on Saturday, earning him Choice Hotels/NEC Player of the Week honors. The Richmond, CA product put the Green & White on his back with a 22-point, nine-rebound second half outburst that saw him score eight of Wagner’s last 10 points to end the frame. He then opened the overtime session with a thunderous dunk off the tip, kickstarting a 15-3 run that would seal win for the Seahawks and even their record at 4-4 for the season. The senior’s performance marked the seventh 30/15 game by an NEC player in the last 16 years and the first since Central Connecticut alum and former NEC Player of the Year Ken Horton accomplished the feat in a game against Brown on Dec. 10, 2011. Additionally, his 17 rebounds are the most on the circuit this season. Through eights games thus far, Williams ranks in the NEC top-five in three categories: scoring (17.5 ppg, fifth), rebounding (7.9, third) and field goal percentage (.558, fifth).
