Ben shares why he is The GREATEST Fan of Grambling State University?😊🎉🐯

"First, I am a native of Grambling, LA. I am the great grandson of Isaac White, the 1st Black Student to attend a school for Emmancipated slaves in 1864. A 100 years later, in 1964 I signed  an scholarship to play Baseball with the legendary Eddie G. Robinson, who was the Athletic Director at Grambling College. It was a honor to play for President and Coach R.W.E. Jones. I was fortunate to Coach with Wilbert Ellis and won 3 Conference championship titles in 1983, 1984, and 1985. Now, I am serving as the Treasurer for Grambling University National Alumni Association. I am excited about the today's leadership at Grambling State University. I am The Greatest Fan of Grambling State University because of the experience it has given me in life and the people who have impacted my journey." Ben Williams
