Early life

A native of the Manayunk section of Philadelphia,[1] Morris graduated from Roman Catholic High School in 1960. He first became involved in basketball following the death of his father while he was attending Roman Catholic. Following his graduation from high school, Morris went to work in a steel mill, and also worked as a salesman for a beverage distribution company. He later purchased and operated a tavern in Roxborough. In 1967, he was hired as an assistant basketball coach at Roman Catholic, and took over as head coach the following season.[2] Morris would coach at the school, which had not made it to the Catholic League playoffs for 27 years prior to his hiring, for 14 seasons, winning six league titles and one city championship.[3]

Morris was controversially fired following the 1980-81 season, ostensibly for his use of school stationary during an unsuccessful run for City Council two years before.[2]
