For

Jay,

athletics

IS

almost

Some people are labeled as

natural born athletes, while

others are acclaimed as being

well trained. For Jay Williams,

the drive to become an

outstanding athlete is natural,

especially since his dad is one

of the winningest track

coaches in Northeast

Louisiana.

Getting to play on the

varsity squad as a sophomore

a

natural

is quite an accomplishment.

but to be starting quarterback

as a sophomore is a feat.

Jay, whose sports career

began in the fifth grade,

played football at WMJHS.

" When I was in the fifth and

sixth grades, the guys I hung

around with all played football ,

and they talked me into

coming out," he explained.

Crediting his father for his

encouragement, Jay said, " He

is the person who has really

kept me going. He can always

find the perfect time."

But even though he had

established himself as an

athlete in only his first year

here, Jay' s life is not focused

on athletics, as he is

interested in outdoor activities,

such as hunting and fishing,

and in music.
