In addition, the Pride was ranked 16th in the final IWLCA Poll of the 2007 season, and Morgan also saw one of her star players, Kimberly Hillier, named a third team All-American and get selected to play on the United States Developmental Team. The 2007 squad finished the year ranked 22nd in winning percentage (.632) and was 23rd in the nation in scoring defense (10.16 GAPG). Morgan joined the Hofstra staff at the start of the academic year after a two-year stint as the top assistant at Monmouth University in West Long Branch, New Jersey.
