WILMINGTON, Ohio – Wilmington College Head Football Coach Corey Fillipovich has announced the hiring of N'Tare Williamson Jr. and Matthew Ramirez to his coaching staff.
Williamson will serve as running backs coach and offensive quality control while Ramirez will coach cornerbacks and serve as special teams quality control.
"Both N'Tare and Matt come from winning programs," said Fillipovich. "They both have seen what it is supposed to look like and how to get there. Both will be huge assets to building a winner here at WC!"
Williamson comes to Wilmington having served a half-year stint with Sports Information Solutions. There, he worked as a video scout, collecting and recording advanced College Football and NFL data based on a team's specific analytical needs.
