Tyonna Williams, former stand-out player for the Temple women’s basketball team, was promoted to Director of Basketball Operations in July of 2016.

Williams earned a bachelor’s degree from Temple in 2015 and spent the 2015-16 season as a graduate manager within the program. 

In her new role, Williams will be responsible for the day-to-day operations of the program, including travel arrangements, practice operations, game day management, and overseeing Temple’s extensive student-manager program. 

A native of Fort Washington, Md., Williams finished her playing career at Temple as the program record holder for three pointers and free throw percentage, making 171 threes and connecting on 81.6% (230-282) from the line. The free throw percentage record stood for 27 years, with Williams breaking the previous mark of 81.4% set by Addie Jackson '88. 

As a senior, Williams led the Owls to a 20-win season and a spot in the WNIT Semifinals, where she was one of six players nationally to earn All-WNIT honors. She finished 17th on Temple's career scoring list with 1,075 points, and fourth on the all-time assists list with 397.
