The long road has came to an end for the athletic director search committee. President Scanlon announced David Williams
as Western’s new AD on March 7. Scanlon offered Western’s sixth AD position in history to Williams on Thursday morning and he accepted the position later that day.
Williams will start May 1 at the latest and said he expects to be on campus much sooner. The seven-month process that started over once and reached another dead end, is finally concluded by the Friday press conference and contract agreement.
Williams received his bachelor’s in physical education and his master’s in educational administration at North Dakota State.
Williams has the credentials to potentially be a very good leader for Westerns athletic department. He has sustained roles as the AD at UW-P since 2001. Williams was an assistant basketball coach at Augustana (S.D.), North Dakota State and Parkside, before entering administration. (Full story)
