COLUMBIA — Size and athleticism. Rock Bridge offensive line coach Jon Lowe says that’s what makes senior Garrick Williams a great player. And it seems Lowe wasn’t joking. During team drills at Monday’s practice, none of Rock Bridge’s rotating defensive ends could get past Williams’ 6-foot-3, 300-pound frame.
