Messiah really plays on a talented team where she can just blend in at times with her play. Williams a true rim protector at times does her best work challenging and altering shots on the defensive end of the floor.

Williams is a transfer from one 4A school that was a major contender in Aiken last season to another 4A school in North Augusta that has only one thing on its mind – another state championship. She is sure to be a integral piece for a Yellowjackets team that is a heavy favorite heading into this season. Williams stands at an even six feet which gives North Augusta another presence and depth in their frontcourt. The Yellowjackets will compete in Region 4-AAAA this season as opposed to Region 5-AAAA which is where they were the last several seasons. Williams’ many basketball talents will have North Augusta poised to remain major players in the Palmetto State’s girls basketball landscape.
