Support Fran Dunphy in the 2017 Infiniti Coaches Charity Challenge
1.2.17 | Men's Basketball
PHILADELPHIA - Temple's head men's basketball coach Fran Dunphy is not only a champion on the court but also in the community. The 2002 Coaches vs. Cancer National Coach of the Year gives his time and effort to many charities so it comes as no surprise that he is one of 48 coaches selected to compete in the 2017 Infiniti Coaches Charity Challenge.
Infiniti announced that it will once again sponsor the "Infiniti Coaches' Charity Challenge" as part of its partnership with the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC), the NCAA and ESPN. Now in its sixth year, the program consists of 48 NCAA® Division I men's basketball coaches competing for fan votes in a four-round contest that helps raise money for charities of the coaches' choice.
Infiniti, an official corporate partner of the NCAA, has pledged to make donations throughout the competition totaling over $349,000. The farther the coaches advance in the competition, the more money is raised for their respective charities. The winning coach will receive $100,000 to benefit his charity of choice.
Beginning January 2, fans will decide who the winner is over a 10 week period, casting votes on a custom online microsite at www.espn.com/infiniti. Voters can cast one vote per day for a coach's charity.
The first round of voting takes place January 2 and runs through January 22. Half of the coaches advance to a second round, held between January 23 and February 12. From February 13 to February 26, the 16 advancing coaches from round two will compete in a third round where only four coaches advance to the final, fourth round. From February 27 to March 12, fans can vote for one coach per day with the top vote-getting coach and charity announced on March 12.
Coach Dunphy's charity for this competition is Big Brothers/Big Sisters Independence Region.
