Maurice Williams
Gymnastics (1969-73)

The history of the gymnastics program at Chico State was one of tremendous success.  No one gymnast epitomized that success like Maurice Williams.  Maurice competed in the all-around competition for the Wildcats with the still rings allowing him to best show off his unique strength and balance.  After earning All-America honors in this country, Maurice moved to Canada and captured the Canadian national still rings championship.  His legacy to Chico State continues to this day as he has sent his three sons to the Chico campus in pursuit of their academic goals.
