Assistant Coach Mike Williams

From today's Michigan Daily:
His work often gets overlooked, as praise for this year's turnaround is usually given to Michigan coach Kevin Borseth.

Williams, who concentrates most on player development rather than recruitment, specifically focuses on strength and conditioning and fine-tuning fundamentals outside of practice.

"I get a chance to go and spend time with them one-on-one or one-on-two and really break things down," Williams said.

Throughout the season, sophomore center Krista Phillips has drastically improved her post game. Her increased aggressiveness in the paint can be attributed in large part to the time she has put in with Williams.

Junior Ashley Jones also benefited from her extra work.
