A 5-9, 165-pound wide receiver from Muskogee, Oklahoma, Williams had a career game for the Big Green against Sacred Heart this past Saturday, setting personal highs in both receptions (11) and receiving yards (178) to help Dartmouth defeat the visiting Pioneers, 49-7. Among his catches was a career-long 60-yard touchdown toss late in the second quarter, as well as grabs of 37 and 32 yards. His 178 receiving yards are the 10th most in a single game in Big Green history and leave him 20 yards shy of becoming the 20th player at Dartmouth to amass 1,000 in a career.
This is the sixth Gold Helmet earned by a Big Green player in the past seven seasons. Nick Schwieger ’12 took home the honor once in each of his final three seasons, while current players Will McNamara (2013) and Dalyn Williams (2014) earned it once each.
Dartmouth (2-0) opens up Ivy League play this Saturday by traveling to Penn (1-1) to face a Quaker squad that is flying high after a 24-13 victory over fourth-ranked Villanova last Thursday. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. and will be streamed live on the Ivy League Digital Network. Big Green fans can tune in to 99Rock (WFRD 99.3 FM) on the radio or online at wfrd.com to get the call from Adam Giardino and Wayne Young ’72.
