Drake Athletics and Drake University mourn the loss of one of Drake University's most iconic and cherished individuals, Paul Morrison. Morrison, who earlier this year celebrated his 100th birthday, passed away today in Des Moines, Iowa.
"Paul represented everything that is great about Drake University," said Drake University President Marty Martin. "He was a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. He was a loyal and trusted friend to so many in our community. He was an outstanding servant-leader in Drake athletics for decades, including long after he had officially retired. Paul was a man of good will and good cheer in everything he did.
