The Multi-Sport Athlete At Williams

Williams affords multi-sport high school athletes the unique opportunity to continue those achievements in college.

No varsity team at Williams requires out-of-season practice, enabling the student-athlete to compete and excel in more than one sport. This philosophy is the backbone of a very successful athletic program at Williams where over 200 varsity athletes compete in two varsity sports and 40 compete in three varsity sports.

Ethan Brooks (l.) & Sean Keenan

Over the years Williams football players have competed in every varsity sport offered in the winter and spring, even earning All-America honors in both sports and we fully expect this trend to continue.

The football staff is actively involved as well as evidenced by their coaching duties in lacrosse, baseball and wrestling.

Ethan Brooks '96 and Sean Keenan '00 both ended up in the NFL with the Arizona Cardinals.

Brooks was an All-American in football, indoor and outdoor track & field for the Ephs, while Keenan was a standout QB and the first Eph invited to the NFL Scouting Combine.

Keenan was a valuable sixth man on two Williams basketball teams that finished third in the nation in 1997 and 1998.

Keenan was selected one of the top 50 athletes ever to come out of Vermont by Sports Illustrated.
