True Blue Podcast: Episode Four feat. Dyson Williams
5/8/2024 12:00:00 PM | Men's Lacrosse, Athletics
DURHAM – The True Blue Podcast, spearheaded by the Blue Devil Network, is a student-athlete led video podcast designed to uncover and share the stories that feature Duke student-athletes.
The overarching goal of the True Blue Podcast is to provide fans with a greater insight into the human side of Duke athletics through open and unadulterated conversations. True Blue is all about showing the outside world who Duke student-athletes are when they step off the fields of play. Hosted by junior Duke field hockey player Shelby Bumgarner, this will be released on a monthly basis.
Dyson Williams, a graduate student on the men's lacrosse team, is the fourth guest on the True Blue Podcast. Dyson is from Oshawa, Ontario and attended the Hill School before coming to Duke.
In addition to being on the Canadian national team Dyson has achieved various accolades during his time at Duke. These include: USILA All-America honorable mention (2023), USA Lacrosse Magazine All-America honorable mention (2023), Inside Lacrosse All-America honorable mention (2023), All-ACC (2023) and All-ACC Academic Team (2022, 2023). Dyson is one of nine Division I players to score 200 career goals and he was the No. 1 pick in the 2023 National Lacrosse League College Draft last summer and most recently was selected 16th in the Premier Lacrosse League College Draft.
Dyson is the son of Shawn and Tamara Williams and the older brother to Dylana. Dyson grew up in a lacrosse family as his sister plays women's lacrosse for Pitt and his dad is a former professional lacrosse player who now is the coach of the Las Vegas Desert Dogs.
Dyson grew up playing lacrosse in Canadian hockey rinks. This is where he grew a passion for goal scoring and box lacrosse. Dyson continues to break records for Duke men's lacrosse and sets the standard for attackers in the NCAA. Most importantly, Dyson is an incredible person and represents Duke on and off the field.
The True Blue Podcast is available here and on Spotify and YouTube.
