With Steinbrenner just recently coming off a state championship win last year, it’s no surprise that our baseball team has an amazing amount of talent. A member of the champion team, senior Patrick Morris is continuing to show his prowess this year and will be attending Florida Atlantic University, a Division 1 program, in the upcoming fall.
Although starting his athletic career with football in his early childhood, Morris says he has always loved baseball.
“I played football back in the day but I just stuck to baseball after that,” said Morris. “I fell in love with it, it was so nice. I just loved it.”
He has been inspired by players such as Bryce Harper and fellow Steinbrenner athlete, Ricky Melvin, since his freshman year. Morris’s love for the sport shows through his abilities on the field; making Morris an important part of the team.
“I’ve played all my life so it’s basically been like a staple for me through my years. It means the world to me.”
His favorite moment in his Steinbrenner baseball career is when he hit a walk off homerun in the regional semifinals game to get them to the finals last year and has big plans for the upcoming season. However, Morris hopes to get more wins and more home runs for the Warriors before he takes his talents to Boca Raton, FL.
