Ryun Williams is on the cusp of history.
The Colorado State women’s basketball coach needs just one more victory to become the all-time winningest coach in program history as the Rams travel to face Wyoming at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday. Williams, in his sixth season, is currently tied for the top spot with Tom Collen (129).
Just don’t expect Williams to revel in the milestone.
“It (doesn’t) mean squat to me,” said Williams after tying the record with a 74-71 home overtime victory Saturday against New Mexico. “What matters to me is we got this win today and then we’ve got to go to Laramie on Wednesday. Thatap the most important game in our book.”
CSU is 14-7 (6-4) with eight regular season games left.
