Carson Another exciting season of MUS football opens against the Glenn A. Crosby II ’77 Central Warriors at legendary Crump Stadium, where the Edward J. Dobbs ’89 ghosts of a host of memorable high-school and college William B. Dunavant III ’78 Robert M. Fockler ’77 contests since 1934 still live. The next week we’re back to P.

Robinson ’75 severance in the face of adversity, selfless loyalty to teammates and school, courage to Chris R. Sanders compete, and teamwork in pursuit of lofty goals. Frederick C. Schaeffer, Jr. ’88 Owen B. Tabor, Jr. ’85 Our responsibility as spectators and supporters is clear: We must extend hospitality to Philip S. Wunderlich ’90 visiting schools and their fans, and we must exhibit the same level of sportsmanship ALUMNI ASSOCIATION and class as our players and coaches.
