The 2010 Lady Warriors, led by Morris, finished the season in third place in the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference (KCAC) with a 10-8-2 overall record, 5-3-1 in the conference before losing to Ottawa University in the semi-final round of the KCAC Championship Tournament.  Senior Kylie Yates was named an NAIA Honorable Mention All-American and KCAC Offensive Player of the Year.

In the 2005 season Morris coached the Warriors and the Lady Warriors to the best record in school history and the Warriors qualified for the NAIA Region IV Tournament for the first time in school history. He was also named the KCAC Women's Coach of the Year following the season.

Morris became the head soccer coach at Sterling College prior to the 1999 season. After completing his eligibility at SC in 1998, Morris took the head coaching position in hopes of rebuilding both the men's and women's team to prominent programs in the KCAC and NAIA.

Morris had a successful career at Sterling as a two-year starter for the Warriors. In his junior season at SC, the Warriors finished second in the KCAC with a 6-2 mark in the conference and 12-6 record overall. In Morris' final season as a Warrior, Sterling finished third in the KCAC. Both seasons the Warriors qualified and participated in the KCAC tournament.
