Williams Commits to University of the District of Columbia

Lincoln Trail College guard Ty Williams is set to join the University of the District of Columbia men's basketball program, following a standout sophomore season with the Statesmen.

Williams emerged as one of the top players in Region 24, leading the team in multiple statistical categories. He averaged 17.1 points, 4.5 assists, and 2.4 steals per game—the latter ranking 15th nationally. He also led the team in free throw percentage at 84.3%. His all-around performance earned him All-Conference and All-Region recognition.

"Ty Williams is an elite combo guard who will do great things at the University of the District of Columbia," said LTC Head Coach Junsie Cotten. "He is one of the most resilient human beings I know, and I applaud him for staying the course after getting injured early in his career."

Cotten said Williams' leadership and production on the court will be missed but expressed confidence in his future.

"I am anticipating great things in the future," said Cotten. "His impact on our program will be missed."
