William Milton begins his first season as the Northern Oklahoma College-Enid Women's Basketball Head Assistant Coach.

"I am very excited and blessed to have the opportunity to serve the Jets Family as the head assistant coach of the women's basketball program," said Milton. "I believe our team needs someone who will be passionate about the program and who will help them reach all of their goals as student-athletes in the classroom, in the community, as well as on the basketball court. I'm looking forward to filling this important role and am grateful of the opportunity. I am looking forward to building relationships with the administration, alumni, supporters, and current players. Our program will continue to produce quality student-athletes that will represent the Northern Oklahoma College-Enid brand well, on and off the court. I can't wait to hit the ground running and continue the excellence that Coach Morris has had here."

What they say about Milton: 

"I am very excited to have had Will on the Lady Rebels staff. He is a person of great character and took great pride in building the Hill College women's basketball program during the entirety of his stint here. I am very happy to have had him on board as we took the program to another level."

-Scott Hyland, Head Women's Basketball Coach at Hill College

"Will is by far one of the most engaging and enthusiastic young coaches I've ever met. He is a tireless working and is always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need. I have been around several young men in my life and Will is certainly someone who I would rate at the top of my list. He is someone who continues to push himself to become better in every aspect of our profession. Northern Oklahoma-Enid is fortunate to have someone of Will's caliber."

-Joshua Prock, Head Women's Basketball Coach at Eastern New Mexico University

"William is a tireless worker at making himself better. The windfall from his persistence is that he makes those around him step back, account for themselves, and try to match his intensity. He loves the game which drives others to be better. His character and dedication to a family atmosphere are important, as well as his proven ability to recruit. He knows the game of basketball and was a big asset to our player development on and off the court."
