Poteet High School Head Girls Basketball Coach
Teri Morrison left a lasting impact on MISD athletics. From 1989 to 2005, she led the Poteet girls basketball program with heart and dedication - compiling a record of 364-161. Throughout her 30-year head coaching career, Morrison's success has been recognized at the highest levels. She was named Budget Rental Car National Coach of the Year in 1994, WBCA District 6 Coach of the Year in 2010 and selected to lead the WBCA All-American Red Team at the 2010 Women's Final Four. She also served as assistant coach in the 2011 McDonald's All-American Game and U16 USA coach in 2014. Beyond the high school courts, Morrison has become a respected figure in player development. She has worked with Nike Skills Academies, Early Youth Basketball League (EYBL), the Nike Girls National Tournament and as a gym director for Baylor women's basketball and SMU basketball summer camps.
After her time in MISD, Morrison continued her winning tradition with successful coaching stops at Royse City, Waco Midway and Southlake Carroll. At Midway, she led the team to the 4A State Championship in 2009, with her 2008 and 2009 teams earning national rankings. In 2012, her Carroll team ranked No. 12 in the country. Her accomplishments were further cemented in 2023 when UIL honored her as one of the Top 100 basketball coaches in Texas. Over the past seven years, she has brought her coaching talents to New Mexico, where her teams have made state tournament appearances every year - finishing as state runner-up in three of four seasons. With more than 800 career wins to her name, Morrison continues to build a legacy of excellence.
