WILLIAMS ON BEING A SUN DEVIL
"I feel honored and excited to be signing with ASU, and I look forward to contributing to the rich history of the program and competing with my teammates for a National Championship."
COACH THURMOND ON WILLIAMS
"Connor is an all-around great person and golfer. Can you believe he's been committed for almost four years already? Shortly after close friend Luke Potter committed, he told us, 'you need to check this guy (Connor) out, he's a really hard worker.' Connor is very dedicated to golf and gives everything to each shot. He's another in a long line of awesome Sun Devils from San Diego."
