The fight occurred during a social gathering off campus.
Winston-Salem police said Friday they talked to everyone who was involved in the incident, and all declined to press charges. Police also said no one else was injured in the fight.
The case now is closed and no charges will be filed, the Winston-Salem Journal reported.
Williams played a key role for the ThunderWolves’ football team last season, registering 28 tackles, including 18 for loss, and 3.5 sacks. Oxbridge went 10-2 and advanced to the Class 3A regional finals.
After the season, Williams was named the Lou Groza Awards High School Player of the Year in a ceremony held at the Palm Beach Gardens Marriott.
