Alex Morrow

**Alexandra Morrow** is one of the main protagonists of *The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers*. She is the mother of Evan Morrow and the coach of the Mighty Ducks. Alex has a challenging time supporting her son and working at a local law firm, but finds herself thrust into a new challenge when she agrees to assist Evan with the formation of his own ice hockey team at school. This resulted in the Don't Bothers.

## Biography

Little is known about Alex's early history, other than the fact that she was previously a dancer on the ice during her high school years. Alex was a talented dancer and later revives her skills in front of Gordon Bombay following the formation of the Don't Bothers. At some point into her adulthood, she gets employed at Ducksworth Law Firm and marries Rob Griffen,

### Game On

Following her son, Evan Morrow, being cut from the Mighty Ducks hockey team, Alex decides to form a new team in which her son will be the captain of. She tells Evan of her idea and he agrees, but the two find themselves at odds when they are eventually able to find participants, but are unable to win a game. Whilst Alex tries to tell Evan that they are only having fun, and that the outcome of their matches doesn't matter, Evan remarks that they cannot be losers and the outcome does matter to the team. Nonetheless, Alex continues to coach the team, striving to improve as a coach at every opportunity.

Alex eventually succeeds in securing a place for the Don't Bothers to train at the Ice Palace after bribing the owner, Gordon Bombay with unallocated funds from the sports budget. She finds that the training grounds are adequate, but that she doesn't have the skills to progress the team any further in their training. Alex turns to Gordon numerous times for aid in their training, but Gordon rebukes her. Eventually, she researches Gordon and finds out about him being banned from practicing hockey professionally again. Despite this, she is able to convince him in to helping them with their training.

Alex finds her position as coach of the Don't Bothers puts her at odds with her employer, Stephanie Reddick, given she is a parent to three of the members of the Mighty Ducks. This causes conflict between the two, especially when Alex is convinced to partake in the slapshot challenge wherein Stephanie holds the record. Stephanie initially beats Alex at the challenge, but after coaching from Gordon, Alex is able to beat her top speed by 1mph, angering Stephanie.

### Change on the Fly

After the Don't Bothers win four straight games, Alex becomes obsessed with winning, and pushes the Don't Bothers at every opportunity to win. Sofi takes notice of this and shares the information with Evan. When she learns about the state championships, Alex introduces a strict training and diet regime into the team's schedule. Evan and the other players of the team become disheartened at the behavior, citing that they are no longer having fun; Alex's strive to win has overshadowed their fun.

The straw would be broken when Alex did a line change involving Nick going on the ice, but Nick gave Logan an opportunity to score by distracting her with his phone, when she would realize the ruse too late. She voiced her frustration in the locker room in spite of the Don't Bothers defeating the Huskies and placing 2nd for the final tournament.

With this, Evan has no other option but to fire Alex as coach of the team, passing the baton to Coach Bombay.

### Head Games

Nonetheless, when the Don't Bothers are nearly thrown out of the championships due to Bombay's history, Alex steps in, remarking that the Don't Bothers should still be able to play given the ruling doesn't apply to the team — they do not follow the rules because they were never officially scouted.

Alex rejoins the team as a coach alongside Bombay, and takes the team all the way to the final. Whilst the Don't Bothers are disqualified by default by refusing to play due to an injury to Sofi putting them below the requirements of ten available players, Alex challenges the Ducks to a private game at the Ice Palace to decide their fate. The Don't Bothers win the game and are able to take back the name "Mighty Ducks". Alex decides to go back to law school and finish her degree.
