SEGUIN, Texas -- Moriah Williams, a junior on the Texas Lutheran volleyball team, has been selected as the SCAC Character and Community Female Student-Athlete of the Week for the week beginning with November 2.

The SCAC Character & Community award honors the efforts of student-athletes who excel in the field of athletics, and also serve their campus and community.

By day, you can find the San Antonio native thriving as a role model in the classroom as well as finding success on the court, as Williams has been a key member of the Bulldogs best start to SCAC play in program history - using her athleticism to be among the team's block leaders as a right-side hitter.

Off the floor, Williams has been active both on-campus and within the larger Seguin and San Antonio area communities. She has become an active member on campus, being a member of numerous bible studies while also serving as an admissions ambassador. She served as a Crew leader at the Two Twenty Christian Youth Conference on campus this summer and has become involved with Living Waters Church in Seguin as a Vacation Bible School leader and leading the 'Mighty Works' Special Needs Ministry. She is also involved with GoodNews Outreach, providing cooked dinners for families in need in Seguin. Through her work within the church, Williams has also dedicated time to do outreach at TruLight Youth Village, who provides residential care for children and youth in foster care who need a safe, supportive place to call home during a difficult and uncertain season of their lives.

When asked what character and community mean to her, Williams stated, "To me, community service is about looking outside of myself and giving myself away through spreading the love that Jesus Christ has poured into my heart. Philippians 2:3-4 mentions looking at the interest of others above yourself; I desire to show others the very humility that Jesus showed us by giving Himself away freely.
