<p><strong>Williams:</strong> "Well, ever since I moved back to the Houston-area, the teams I've coached have either been in a district with GCM or we've competed against them somewhere at tournaments. I'm very familiar with the school and the program since it opened. Whenever Coach Veen moved on to <a data-linked-post="2646887990" href="https://www.vype.com/Texas/Houston/barbers-hill-volleyball-preview" target="_blank">Barbers Hill</a>, I knew what they had and thought this would be a good opportunity in the area." </p><p><ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-9787720712654893" data-ad-slot="8738871937" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true"></ins>

</script></p><p><strong>VYPE:</strong> You got this job during a global pandemic when people couldn't be around others for a long time. How did you approach getting to know your new team through it? </p><p><strong>Williams:</strong> "It's been difficult because we had several instances this summer where we started strength and conditioning and then got canceled because of an outbreak. There were a lot of inconsistencies. We've been going good since August 3 and it's been nice because you've been able to slow things down. [Because of the delayed start to the season] we had five or six weeks where we were able to take our time, work on the fundamentals of the game and teach them the way I want them to play the game." </p><p><strong>VYPE: </strong>When you look at this GCM roster, there are some key players including Taylor Kotlarz and Zoe Martinez. </p><p><strong>Williams:</strong> "Taylor is a very dynamic outside hitter, she's a big gun. There's not a lot of schools that have a Taylor hitting outside for them. So, I'm very fortunate to have that. Zoe is a very good setter, very accomplished. She's capable of running the offense we want to run. She does a great job. She's a very good leader, runs the team, very calm, cool and collected."</p><p><ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-9787720712654893" data-ad-slot="8738871937" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true"></ins>
