Williams' career ran the gamut at Wash
At the age of 62, Rick Williams is suddenly sensing the swiftness of life, when the years pass like weeks.
It doesn’t seem so long ago that he was a skinny kid in high-top Chuck Taylor All-Stars, an all-state guard on the only Washington High School boys basketball team to win a state championship.
But that was 44 years ago.
And this past Friday, Williams was walking the hallways of Washington for the final time as an associate principal, his last day before retiring after 37 years as a coach and educator.
