“That program definitely did a lot for me. We won games. It was good times.”
Morrow played four years of varsity basketball at Justin-Siena.
Also entering the Hall of Fame is Joseph Adamson (football), a 1993 Vintage graduate who played on the Crushers’ 1992 Monticello Empire League title team, coached by Dave Shipp. Adamson, a cornerback, was on the Vintage track and field team as a hurdler and high jumper.
