And Don’t Forget: physicals must be on file with Clark trainers before trying-out! Good Luck Coogs!

Congratulations to David Garrett for being named to the 1st team All State boys team.

The Clark Cougars Water Polo teams, boys and girls, traveled to Dallas to compete for a state championship.  The girls lost their first game to Alvin, 10-5 in their afternoon game.  The boys, however, won their first game.  They defeated Brazoswood 19-5 in the pool.  In the boys second game against Atascosita, they fell 9-4 to the Eagles from the Houston area.

Clark Athletic Booster Club Winners

Several hundred Clark varsity athletes, coaches, parents and friends attended the Clark Athletic Booster Club annual All Sports Banquet.  Each athlete was recognized with the exception of the Water Polo team, who could not attend due to their presence being requested in Dallas where they are competing for a STATE title (Good Luck!).  The highlight of the evening was the awarding of scholarships by the booster club to college-bound seniors.  Each received a $1000 scholarship.  Also recognized was Booster club President Janet Whisenhunt for her efforts and Coach Kevin Hamilton, who retired from coaching after 24 years at Clark to accept a position in the district office.
