Girls just want to have fun

The Senior girls dominated the Juniors in this year’s annual Powder Puff game, three TD’s to one.  And despite all their efforts, the cheerleaders for this year still needed to shave and should not consider careers in high fashion. And get a tan.

Oh, and the 2011 varsity football schedule is posted on the calendar at the right.

Good luck SENIORS!

Clark Lift-a-thon

The 18th annual Lift-A-Thon, sponsored by the Clark Texas Football Club, was another huge success. With a packed house of enthusiastic Cougar fans  the Lift-A-Thon provided an exciting look at the strength of next season’s Varsity and Junior Varsity squads.  Several players exceeded their personal best records. Among those still standing in the plus 300’s at the end were  Roger Lamar (jr),  Charles  Quichocho (jr)  and the DeHart brothers – William (soph) and Blake (jr). (continue reading…)

Only the strong survive

The annual Clark football fundraiser, Lift-a-thon, will take place tomorrow night at 6:30pm in the Clark boys gym.  Besides an unbelievable amount of testosterone, there will be dancing by the Top Cats.  There’s still time to sponsor one of the players who will be participating.

Lift-a-thon means there’s just a few weeks left until SPRING FOOTBALL SEASON!  Come on out and cheer on the guys and enjoy the Top Cat performances.
