Playing career Moretti grew up and played high school football for Hornell High School in Hornell, New York. He set the school's single-season passing record in 1967 as he threw for 938 yards. He was the starting quarterback for the team's undefeated 1971 season. They also won the Lambert Bowl and were Independent College Athletic Conference (ICAC) champions.
