Nevada Staff Update

University of Nevada women’s basketball head coach Jane Albright announced Monday that she has promoted Camille Williams to the title of associate head coach and Janet Butler to director of basketball operations.

Williams served the previous five years as an assistant coach at Nevada after spending three seasons, 2005-2008, as an assistant coach at UC Santa Barbara. During her time with the Gauchos, she assisted with guard and post player development and defense, served as the co-recruiting coordinator and oversaw UCSB’s academic development. While at UCSB, the Gauchos won its 13th Big West Conference Championship and advanced to the NCAA Tournament in 2007-08. She served as the lead contact in the recruitment of a pair of McDonald’s All-American Nominees, Meagan Williams, the Sacramento Player of the Year, and Ashlee Brown, an All-State player from Arizona.

Butler, who just completed her first season with the Wolf Pack as a graduate assistant, will assist with team travel, coordinating camps and academics and manage other operational duties for the Wolf Pack.

Butler helped lead Louisiana College to a 25-4 record as a senior captain in 2010-11, ultimately reaching the second round of the NCAA Division III Tournament. She averaged 6.7 points per game for the Lady Cats, and led the American Southwest Conference with 54 3-pointers. She was also a three-time All-American Southwest Conference honorable mention selection during her career.
