Bonner, Castro, Chapman and Greenbauer sign scholarship offers

Four Clark Cougars from the 2009 state quarter-finalist football team committed to playing at the next level on National Signing Day at Clark.  Hayden Greenbauer, Robert Chapman, Greg Castro and Glenn Bonner sat before coaches, cameras and classmates at Clark for their college football start.  Hayden Greenbauer, one of,  if not the most successful quarterback at Clark, signed with SMU.  Robert Chapman, who also had an offer from Air Force, chose to stay home and play for national champion coach Larry Coker and the UTSA Roadrunners, whose inaugural season begins next year.  Defensive players Greg Castro and Glenn Bonner are headed to Canyon, Texas and the chance to play for West Texas A&M.  Castro also received an offer from Abilene Christian University.

Congratulations to these great players and Good Luck.  Clark fans will be watching!

Ranks Clark #25 in preseason list

5ATexasFootball.com has released their first ranking of the season and the Clark Cougar Football team cracks the list at #25 in the state.  Clark is one of only three Region 4 teams on the list.  Not entirely accurate (where is that guy? and why isn’t he playing?),  the article that accompanies it is a good read and great for diehard fans of the program.  You can find out more here.
