Sadly, I have been informed of the death of Leland “Bunky” Morris. Morris, who starred as a halfback on the immortal undefeated, untied and unscored upon 1937 Norwich High School football team, died Saturday, March 14, 2015 at the age of 95.

Following his graduation from Norwich, Morris went on to be a triple-threat – pass, run and kick – star at Syracuse University from where he graduated in 1946, after having his SU career interrupted by WWII. He later played professional football for the Washington Redskins.
