Cougars celebrate district championship

The Clark Cougar varsity basketball team claimed the 28-5A district championship with a win over Holmes 75-54.  The Cougars actually trailed after the 1st period but came back and stifled the Huskies with a 25 point outburst to end the half up 35-24.  Jason Brickman (22), Elhad Emerllahu (17) and Ansley Benjamin (20) led the scoring for the Cougars.  The win also pushed their win streak to 14, all against district foes.  The Cougars still have two games left in district play.
