His message to those kids wanting to play collegiately and professionally is “You have to be coachable, willing to learn, and do whatever it takes to become the best in your craft.” Kirk and his wife, Wanda, have two children, Jessica and Kyle.

“I am honored and blessed to have Woody coaching alongside me,” said Head Coach Tom Arrington. “We have known each other for years, but working together has been extremely rewarding to me, not only from a coaching perspective but from personal one as well. Woody is extremely knowledgeable of the game, as is evidenced in his playing experience, but more importantly he has a way of delivering this knowledge to the players in a way they can understand and utilize in their development. Though Woody’s primary responsibility is working with the development of the pitchers, his input in all areas of the team is welcomed.”

Williams and his wife, Kim, reside in Houston. The couple has five children– Katelyn, Sarah, Hannah, Lily, and Caden.
