Roy Morris Commits To University of San Diego--(March 16, 1999)

We just received word from John Saintignon, the head coach at Bonita Vista High School that Roy Morris (6'-1" Sr. PG) has committed to the University of San Diego.

Apparently Roy took a recruiting trip there this past weekend, and after enjoying it and liking what he saw, made the decision to stay local.  Roy has good size, an excellent handle, and this season, prior to the playoffs, was averaging 15.3 ppg and 5.3 rebounds per game.  With Victory Esquer (6'-1" Sr. SG), Tyson Leninger (6'-2" Sr. F), Lamar Robson (6'-3" Sr. F) and Sonny Jensen (6'-6" Sr. C), Bonita Vista won the San Diego CIF Section Division I title by defeating Southwest, 75-62 in a game which saw Morris, an All-County selection, hit for 15 points and grab 12 rebounds.  Bonita Vista  lost in the first round of the State Southern Regional playoffs to Mater Dei, but that was a game played without Robson, their leading rebounder who averaged 14.4 rebounds per game, who was sick with the flu.

With Morris signing at USD, it looks like the long wait for Kyle Dodd (6'-0" Sr. PG) from Brea-Olinda to make up his mind is now over; Dodd,  is reportedly still looking at Utah and other schools will probably make a decision in the next few weeks.
