Early years
Rocky Moreaux was born in Louisville, KY, where he grew up with his two younger siblings and their parents Becca Moreaux (née Patrick) and former Olympic sprinter Tammy Moreaux. Moreaux attended duPont Manual High School in Louisville, where he succeeded as both an academic and an athelete. Moreaux in track during all four years of his high school career as a sprinter, following in his mother's footsteps. He finished second in the 100-meter dash at the 2048 Kentucky State Championship meet, with a personal best 10.40 second finish. At the same competition, Moreaux also won the 200-meter dash with a personal best 21.69 second time. Moreaux didn't begin playing football until his junior year, where he immediately broke out with second-team All-State honors for his performance on the year. He improved the next year, recording 69 catches for 1,594 yards and 18 TDs. He helped lead his team to the second round of the 6A KHSAA Football Playoffs, where the Manual Crimsons lost 52-49 to the St. Xavier Tigers.
Moreaux graduated from Manual in 2048 as the class salutatorian. He had multiple offers to attend and play for Ivy League schools, but instead chose to stay home and attent the University of Louiville.
College career
Rocky Moreaux was redshirted in his freshman year at Louisville. In his second year with the team, his Redshirt Freshman season, Moreaux impressed in camp and was elevated to a starting role opposite Heisman hopeful and teammate Osiris Williams. Moreaux finished second on the team with 817 receiving yards on 42 catches with 9 TDs scored as a receiver. Moreaux was also used as a rushing threat, carrying the ball 21 times for 227 yards, including a stunning 87 yard TD rush on a double reverse play to put the Cardinals ahead of Wake Forest late in their week 9 matchup.
Moreaux took over starting duties in 2050 after Williams shocked the team with a surprise retirement before the season. Moreaux got off to a rocky start with only 28 yards and one touchdown in the first two weeks as the Cardinals started the season out winless. After warming up with a 214 yard, 2 touchdown performance over James Madison, Moreaux improved considerably. He finished the season with 1,627 yards on 91 receptions with 15 touchdowns. His performance helped the team go undefeated through the rest of the season, securing a berth in the Orange Bowl.
After the 2050 College Football season, Moreaux would declare his intentions to join the S37 ISFL Draft Class. As an early declaree, he would have the chance to make an impact on the DSFL in S35 as a waiver addition before hopefully finding his DSFL home in the S36 draft.
