Hunter Williams

The Coach Who Built Others Is Now Building Himself on the Grid

Hunter Williams spent years in the coaching booth at CrossFit Stacked in Hickory, North Carolina, managing programming and mentoring athletes through the demands of competitive functional fitness. Now the level 2 CrossFit-certified coach and head coach-manager is applying that expertise to his own Grid League career as a utility player wearing #34.

At 5’9″ and 190 pounds, Williams brings something Carolina Flight’s younger roster desperately needs: the perspective of someone who has shaped athlete development. His time building others at CrossFit Stacked taught him what functional strength looks like under fatigue, how explosive movement breaks down in real competition, and how to stay mentally sharp when the Grid demands everything at once. He also brings a family perspective, as fatherhood and faith inform his approach to competition.

This is a utility player who understands the sport from the ground level.
