Tamika Williams-Jeter (born Tamika Maria Williams; April 12, 1980) is the head women's basketball coach at the University of Dayton. She was a professional basketball player for the Minnesota Lynx and the Connecticut Sun in the WNBA.

High school

[edit]

Born in Dayton, Ohio, Williams-Jeter started playing organized basketball at age 10 in the Dayton Lady Hoopstars AAU program,[1] played on Lady Hoopstar teams which won one national AAU age group championship and finished in top four twice.

Williams-Jeter had a stellar basketball career at Chaminade-Julienne,[2] a Catholic high school in Dayton, Ohio. She was named the 1997 and 1998 Ohio Player of the Year and was named in the 1997-98 Associated Press girls Division I All-Ohio high school basketball team. She was named "Ohio's Miss Basketball" by the Associated Press and chosen by a statewide media panel.[3] Williams-Jeter was also named a WBCA All-American and the WBCA high school player of the year.[4][5] Williams-Jeter participated in the WBCA High School All-America Game, where she scored eight points.[6]

After graduating from Chaminade-Julienne, Williams-Jeter was heavily recruited by numerous collegiate teams. In 1997, she was the subject of a seven-page feature in a January 1998 issue of a Sports Illustrated magazine article on the pressures of being recruited.[7] Ohio State arranged for a private jet to fly Williams-Jeter from her home in Dayton to Columbus, approximately 70 miles away. She mentioned this to UConn coach Geno Auriemma, who responded by mailing her a little wooden plane, explaining, "Sorry, Tamika. This is the best we can do."[8]

College

[edit]

Williams-Jeter attended the University of Connecticut, majored in interpersonal communications, and served as President of UConn's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee.[9] From 1998 to 2002 she was part of the UConn basketball team, which became NCAA Division I National Championship teams in 2000 and 2002 under coach Geno Auriemma.

She completed her four-year collegiate career in 2002 with averages of 10.6 points per game and 5.8 rebounds per game. She finished as UConn's all-time leader in field goal percentage at 70.3% (560-for-797), which is also an NCAA Division 1 record.[10] She also holds the Huskies' top four single-season marks for field goal percentage,[11] ranked 14th on UConn's all-time scoring list with 1,402 points,[12] and finished 10th all-time in rebounding (763).[13] She was one of four players (along with Asjha Jones, Swin Cash, and Sue Bird) called by Sports Illustrated "best recruiting class of 1998".[14]

In recent years, she has been spending the WNBA off-season working on getting a master's degree in sports management at Ohio State University.

Professional career

[edit]

During the 2002 WNBA draft, the Minnesota Lynx selected Williams-Jeter in the first round, sixth overall.[15] In 2003, she set a WNBA single-season record for field-goal accuracy, with a percentage of 66.8%.[16]

On March 14, 2008, Williams-Jeter was traded to the Connecticut Sun in exchange for Kristen Rasmussen.[17]
