Athlete Spotlight-Morin

Morin is ranked among the top throwers in both the Tri-Valley League and Division 2 statewide. His early-season bests of 43 feet in the shot put and 131 feet in the discus, according to coach Mike Donahue, “look to be a harbinger of bigger performances to come, as his practice sessions have yielded impressive distances.” Added Donahue: “A natural leader and overall great young man, he has become the de facto captain of the throwers. … In our daily training, no one works harder than him, and he is often the last one working at practice both in the throwing circle and the weight room.”

Move In Style, sponsored by Custom Home Realty’s Laura Wauters, is a weekly Hopkinton Independent feature. Each week during the school year, we will highlight a different Hopkinton High School athlete, selected after consultation with HHS coaches.
