William "Speedy" Morris (born April 26, 1942) is a retired college basketball coach. He was head coach at La Salle University from 1986 to 2001. He led the Explorers to four NCAA tournament appearances. His 238 wins are the most in school history. His best team was the 1989-1990 unit, led by Lionel Simmons and Doug Overton, which posted a 30-2 record and finished 12th in both major polls. Morris was the first Division I coach to coach both the men's and women's program at a school. While at La Salle, Morris coached future NBA players Simmons, Overton, Randy Woods, Tim Legler, and Rasual Butler. However, he was forced to resign in 2001 after eight straight losing seasons. Soon afterward, he was hired at Saint Joseph's Prep High School in Philadelphia, and has been there ever since. On February 7 of 2011, he earned his 561st win in the Philadelphia Catholic League, the most of any coach in league history. On February 3, 2012, Speedy earned his 900th win as The Prep defeated Roman Catholic, a team he once coached.〔http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/high_school/20110208_Speedy_Morris_earns_record_561.html〕 ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Speedy Morris」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
