Teammates from SMU’s legendary “Pony Express” era of 1980-1982 teamed up to coach approximately 200 of Dallas’s young athletes. Campers were led through a series of drills, inspirational huddles, and each received a t-shirt upon check-in. These campers, largely from Dallas’s inner-city schools, gained the unique experience of playing football on SMU turf under Dickerson’s valued leadership.
