Retired New York Giants defensive back Shaun Williams, who has spent the past 13 years on the coaching staff at William Paterson University, was officially elevated to head coach on Monday.
“I am truly grateful for the opportunity to lead William Paterson University football,” Williams said, via the program’s official website. “I look forward to growing this program and making it the premiere destination for student-athletes to grow personally, academically and athletically. I have been a coach at WP for 13 years and understand the challenges and opportunities that we face. Throughout my time at William Paterson I have become a Pioneer and bleed Black and Orange, and I will build this program on pride and accountability.”
