Williams shot 70 percent from the field (7 of 10) and made two of his four 3-point attempts.
Maryland-Eastern Shore led 53-51 with 8:24 left in the second half after Mark Robertson knocked down a trey. But Norfolk State (10-5, 2-0 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) used an 8-0 run to take a 59-53 lead with 5:47 left.
The Hawks would get no closer than six, as the Spartans made 10 free throws in the final minute.
