After 10 years of training with his father, Hampton Morris won a bronze medal at the Paris Olympics, adding to a collection of medals and records in the Pan American and World championships. It was the first Olympic medal in weightlifting for the U.S. in 40 years. I sat down with Tripp Morris to talk about his parenting and coaching of Hampton.
Tripp Morris is an accomplished material chemist who serves as the Director of Research & Innovation. Outside his professional corporate career, he is a Senior International Coach for USA Weightlifting at Ritual Weightlifting in Marietta, Georgia. In this coaching role, he guided his son, Hampton Morris, to elite international success, culminating in a historic trip to the 2024 Paris Olympics, where Hampton earned Bronze. Balancing the roles of an innovation leader and an elite athletic mentor, Tripp also shares his passionate sporting journey directly alongside his wife and daughter, who actively support the Ritual Weightlifting Team.
