One of the nine “boys in the boat” who rowed to Olympic gold in 1936, Roger Morris is an ambitious student at the University of Washington. Like many of the other rowers, he comes from a relatively poor family, meaning that he has to work hard to support himself through college. Unlike most of the other freshman rowers, Roger has some experience with rowing, since he grew up near water.
