June 1, 2013 – During the induction ceremony, Brewster's Athletic Director Matt Lawlor spoke on behalf of the late Milt Morin, a 1962 graduate of the Academy. "In the 1960s, Milt Morin was one of the better athletes in all of New England. According to his teammates he was one of the most physically imposing players they had ever seen. Milt didn't say much, recalls one of his teammates. He did his talking to us with his pads but when he spoke everyone listened."
After Brewster, Morin attended the University of Massachusetts on a football scholarship. During his sophomore season, Morin helped UMASS to an undefeated season and the school’s first ever bowl appearance in the Tangerine Bowl. Along with starring on the football team Morin was a standout for the Minutemen as a wrestler and lacrosse player during his four years, earning a total of seven varsity letters.
"After being on the most decorated players for the Minutemen, Morin was a first round draft pick for the Cleveland Browns where he had a 10-year career and appeared in two pro bowls in 1968 and 1971," Lawlor said.
Along with being a member of Brewster's Athletic Hall of Fame, he is a member of the UMass Hall of Fame and the College Football Hall of Fame.
Lawlor shared that, "Milt's wife Ellen, could not be with us today, but she tells me that Milt spoke about Brewster often. Milt always stressed how his time at BA helped him prepare and study and was very thankful for this skill as it propelled him through college."
