GLENN MORRIS comes is as our HBM Decathlon no.10

GLENN MORRIS comes is as our HBM Decathlon no.10…after graduating from Colorado State in 1934, he went on to take home Olympic Gold in 1936, setting a World Record that would remain unbeaten until 14 years later in 1950!!!💪
Thereafter, time playing American Football for the Detroit Lions, and even landing the role of Tarzan (in “Tarzan’s Revenge”), all came along quickly, only sadly for serious injury whilst serving as a naval officer during WWII to impact his life thereafter; until his passing in 1974 aged 61…🕊️
