During his tenure at Lakehead, he led the Wolves to four straight CIS Final 8 appearances (2010–2013). Under his leadership, Lakehead went from the worst team in the nation in 2006 to a perennial top five program from 2008 to 2013 and won their first OUA Championship in 2011. Notably, Morrison was named OUA Coach of the Year in 2010.
Morrison was hired as an assistant coach with Canada national under-19 basketball team in 2012 and has remained on staff for two international cycles.
