Chris Dawson, originally from Wichita, KS, will make his debut as the head coach of the Joplin Outlaws in the summer of 2020.

Coach Dawson is in his first year as an assistant coach for McPherson College, where he assists in coaching hitters and is in charge of coaching infielders and base running.

During his college years, Dawson played baseball at Hesston College before transferring to Tabor College for his sophomore year.
