Joe Robison/Bob Dunlap give to the MC Athletics Dinner

For Joe Robison, supporting MC Athletics isn't just a gesture; it's a lifelong commitment rooted in a passion for sports and a love for the university. His steadfast dedication has been instrumental in the success of the Annual Dr. Don Phillips Athletics Dinner. Thanks to Joe's tireless efforts and the generosity of donors like him, the dinner raised an astounding $310,000, providing vital support for the growth and development of athletics programs at Mississippi College. 

Mr. Robinson’s impact goes beyond financial contributions. His dedication to the cause has inspired others to join in the mission of advancing MC Athletics. It was he who introduced Bob Dunlap, owner of Dunlap Tires in Batesville, MS, to Dr. Blake Thompson and former Athletics Director, Mike Jones. From their first meeting, Bob's enthusiasm for MC Athletics was palpable, and his desire to make a difference was undeniable.

With a heart full of generosity, Mr. Dunlap wasted no time in making a significant contribution as a Presenting Sponsor to the Athletics program. His generous donation serves as a testament to the power of community and the transformative impact of philanthropy. Through their support, these two gentlemen are helping to ensure that student-athletes at Mississippi College have the resources they need to excel both on and off the field.

The partnership between Joe Robison, Bob Dunlap, and Mississippi College Athletics exemplifies the spirit of unity and collaboration that defines the Choctaw Family. Together, they are paving the way for a future where athletic excellence knows no bounds and where student-athletes have the opportunity to reach their full potential.
