Early years
Thomas Robinson was born in San Antonio, TX, to parents Theodore and Elena Robinson. Theodore, himself an Olympic athlete (Men's Skeet), heavily encouraged his son's athletic pursuits. Though he played a variety of sports, Thomas' primary sport in high school was volleyball. He competed at the club level for the entirety of his high school career, winning multiple regional tournaments and leagues. In his senior year, his club team placed 9th at the U-18 National Championships, held in Dallas, TX. His other sports were were somewhat less praise-worthy, with few accolades to note. Football, in particular, was a distant afterthought. Thomas' natural athleticism allowed him to excel, but small school size prevented him from gaining any recognition.
In addition to his athletic achievements, Thomas was regarded as a strong student, earning a number of national academic honors in addition to both a perfect SAT and a perfect ACT. The relative obscurity of his chosen sport meant that he saw very little recruitment (if any) out of high school.
College career
Robinson attended college at the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in Terre Haute, IN, a school he chose not for athletics but for its reputation as a premier STEM university. In his freshman year, he switched his primary sport to football; RHIT has no official men's volleyball program, but competes in football at the D-III level in the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference. Almost immediately, he made his mark, catching 45 receptions for 693 yards and 8 touchdowns en route to a 10-2 season (8-0 in conference play) in 2047. Robinson proved himself a quick learner on the field, achieving at a high level as a true freshman despite not having focused on football previously.
In 2048 Robinson proved that his freshman season hadn't been a fluke. With a year of experience under his belt, he began setting records. 1243 yards and 18 touchdowns both stood as all-time highs, while his 80 receptions was good for second place on the leaderboard. The Fightin' Engineers rode that performance to a 12-0 finish (8-0 in conference).
2048 was spectacular, but 2049 was truly incredible, serving as a case study in what a genuine ISFL talent is capable of doing at the D-III level. Over the course of twelve games (every single one of them victories), Robinson hauled in 103 total catches, going for 1517 yards and an absurd 24 touchdowns, shattering all three previous records. Over the course of the season, Robinson recorded more touchdowns than drops.
After his junior year, Robinson graduated with a B.S. in Computer Science and declared for the DSFL draft.
