Video: UNLV football signee Charles Williams shows off speed

Mon, May 23, 2016 (2 a.m.)

Charles Williams ran past the competition Saturday at the CIF Central sectional track meet. In a few months, the Fresno, Calif., product could be outracing defenders for the UNLV football team.

Williams, who signed with the Rebels last February, won the 100-meter dash in 10.63 seconds and the 200 meters in 21.43 on Saturday for Bullard High. He’s a two-time champion in the 200.

The 5-foot-11, 195-pounds Williams is a three-star football recruit who rushed for 2,039 yards and 23 touchdowns as a senior. It might not take long for Williams to see the field at UNLV.

“Expect to see him carry the ball this fall,” Rebels’ coach Sanchez said on signing day.

And if Williams gets into the open field, as witnessed in the below video, it will be tough to catch-up to the speedster.
