GUCCI BOWL 2011
by envisionfilmvideo.com on Aug.22, 2011, under Football
Focused, ready, and looking for revenge. That best describes the 2011 Clark Cougars varsity football team’s attitude going into this year’s Gucci Bowl, the annual San Antonio high school football season kick off game. The Cougars are looking to avenge last year’s loss to the Churchill Chargers. Churchill, rated as high as #2 in district 26-5A and #8 in San Antonio, brings a new offensive leader in projected starting junior QB Blake Reeve. They also return an experienced defense who led their district in 2010.
The Cougars are expected to light it up behind Arizona commit senior QB Josh Kern. A classic Clark beefed up offensive line with plenty of DeHart aim to Cram the Chargers defensive front. The Cougars, picked as a “possible” playoff contender in 27-5A (although the Express News sees it differently – in a good way), aim to make the prognosticators pay.
Game time is – LOOK AT THE CLOCK ON THE RIGHT – and will be televised for the 3rd consecutive year on Thursday Night Lights on My35 television. You can also follow us on twitter for live updates.
If you can’t wait to start cheering, show up at the Back in Black Pep Rally Wednesday evening at Clark.
BEAT CHURCHILL! Thursday, August 25 Farris Stadium, 7:00pm

VOLLEYBALL SPLITS AT NEISD

Clark Cougar volleyball saw both success and challenge in this weekend’s NEISD tournament. Clark lost their match to Madison but defeated Boerne Champion and East Central, sending them to the championship bracket on the second day of the tournament.

KICKOFF DAYS AWAY
by envisionfilmvideo.com on Aug.19, 2011, under Football
The 2011 version of Clark Cougar football took on Reagan in a morning scrimmage at Farris Stadium. In the 20 play series action, Reagan and Clark each scored twice, tying at 14-14. Sr. WR Troy Ogletree’s acrobat catch put the first points on the board for the Cougars.
In “live” action, where a 12-minute qtr. clock is used to simulate a game, Reagan reached the endzone once while Clark scored on a 36 yd. FG from Ty Williams. The “live” action scrimmage ended up Reagan 7 – Clark 3.
While both teams still have work to do, both looked sharp for the morning. Clark’s offensive line powered their way throughout the game as the defense also held their ground against a potentially explosive Reagan offense. A solid crowd of fans filled the stands in the morning heat.

MOVING ON UP
by envisionfilmvideo.com on Aug.16, 2011, under Volleyball
The Clark Cougars varsity volleyball team rocketed to #6 on the first week of this season’s Express News rankings. Unranked previous to season play, an outstanding effort by the ladies, including wins over #4 Antonian and a 2nd place finish in the NISD tournament, earned them the spot. Brandeis dropped from #7 to #10 and O’Connor dropped out of the poll.
The Cougars face #1 Johnson tomorrow evening at Clark (hint: short drive to come and see this team play) but first face Alamo Heights in our home gym (hint: see hint #1).
Good work Cougars!
