NORMAN — Sherri Coale isn't surprised by LaNesia Williams' chosen career path.
After graduating from Oklahoma in May, the Sooner point guard began pursing a master's degree in mental health counseling during her final season of eligibility. Eventually, she wants to open her own private practice.
Coale knows it's the perfect fit.
“She's a real even-keeled kid,” Coale said. “She doesn't get too high, doesn't get too low. I think that levelheadedness is one of the things that draws her peers to feel comfortable and whether it's disclosing things to her or asking for advice or encouragement or whatever, she's pretty dependable in her reactions and I think that's a very admirable trait.
