Bruce Williams

Williams begins his second season at UWSP in 2025-26.

He came to UWSP after spending the 2023-24 season as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Cornell College. There, he was responsible for what the head coach has referred to as the best recruiting class in the 20 years he has been leading the program.
 
No stranger to Central Wisconsin, Williams led an impressive turnaround as the head varsity girls basketball coach at Wild Rose High School from 2005-15. The program won three conference championships during Williams’ tenure, highlighted by back-to-back undefeated conference seasons and an impressive 42-game conference winning streak.

Williams was assistant varsity boys coach at Wild Rose from 2015-18.
 
From 2017-23, Williams founded and directed Welcomed, a non-profit organization serving vulnerable children of foster and adoptive families.  
 
Williams and his wife Stephanie have been married 27 years and have seven children (2 biological and 5 adopted). They have been foster parents for the past 11 years and have cared for more than 20 additional children since 2014.
