Your Real Champion® – “Tennis: Racket Science… not Rocket Science!”
Stocky Morris doesn’t waste time complaining. He never felt limited by Type I Diabetes that was discovered when he was 20 months old. Despite multiple fingers sticks each day and frequent visits to the hospital, Stocky learned to take the “hand he was dealt” in stride. His “can-do” attitude won him first place in a national tennis racket stringing competition and now tennis pro’s from around the world depend on his impeccable skills.
