Gene Williams ('79) played for the Central Methodist Football program from 1975-78 as a wide receiver. During his final two seasons with the Eagles, Williams was a part of one of the most lethal passing attacks in the country, a team that set national records in 1977 averaging 383.7 passing yards/game in only an eight-game schedule. He finished his junior year with 44 receptions for 853 yards and five touchdowns. His 107 receiving yards/game were good for second on the team and sixth in all of the NAIA. Williams improved upon his junior season accomplishments with 46 catches for 1,080 yards, good for No. 4 in the country. In 1978, he joined teammate Steve Luetjen as becoming the first two receivers in school history to record over 1,000-yard seasons.
