Reggie Morton is Head Coach of the Girls Basketball program, arriving at CA in 2019, most recently having coached at Bear Creek High School. A self-described “military brat,” Morton grew up all over the world, but ended up playing high school basketball in Derby, Kan., where he is now in the school’s Hall of Fame. He is also in the Hall of Fame of Hutchinson Community College in Hutchinson, Kan., where he helped lead his team to a National Championship.
The University of Colorado Boulder spotted his talent, as did universities in Wyoming and South Florida. “It wasn’t a hard decision,” he laughs. “I took one look at Boulder and said, ‘This is beautiful!’” Morton played for CU from 1988-1990, and during that time, the team made it to the Big Eight finals. Morton was impressed by CA’s sports facilities, administrative support, and the school’s track record of State Championships. “At CA, the players know how to win and the coaches know how to coach,” he says. “I want to do the same thing in Basketball.”
