UConn signee Christyn Williams wins Naismith award
"The 5-foot-11 Williams entered the Arkansas 4A championship game against Riverview with averages of 26.4 points, 10.4 rebounds, 2.9 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.3 blocked shots per game. She has scored in double figures in every game as a senior. In the postseason, her numbers have jumped to 31.1 points, 14.1 rebounds, 3 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.3 blocks per contest including averages of 37 points, 16.3 rebounds and 2.7 assists in the state tournament as she increased her totals to 45 games with at least 30 points and eight 40-point efforts.
"The honors have been coming in at a fast and furious pace for Williams. She was named one of eight finalists for the Morgan Wootten Award, presented annually to the national player of the year by the organizers of the McDonald’s All American Game. Williams and fellow UConn signee Olivia Nelson-Ododa are both finalists for that honor, and on Thursday it was announced that they were both selected to play in the girls’ game at the Jordan Brand Classic in New York on April 8.
After playing in the two national all-star games, Williams’ focus will be on getting started at UConn. It won’t be easy, as the previous national players of the year who played for Geno Auriemma at UConn know all too well."
And Gabby's advice: “Her and I are pretty cool so I’d tell her to just be ready and prepared,” Walker said. “Soak up all (the national recognition), enjoy it right now and be ready for next year.”
