Home is where the court is

MBB: Parents are never far from supporting their sons as Valparaiso prepares for senior celebration

Since arriving on campus in the fall of 2019, Valparaiso walk-on Luke Morrill has appeared in 14 games for a total of 33 minutes and 43 seconds of court time.

That’s not even half the time it takes Dan and Kris Morrill to drive from their home in Lombard, Illinois to the Athletics-Recreation Center to watch their son go through the layup line in pregame warmups.

Regardless if Luke plays or not, the Morrill’s have been at every game at the ARC this season and all but one road game as well. It’s a sacrifice they make, not just for Luke, but for the entire team.
