Williams receives congratulations

With a couple of hundred people looking on and with field goals of 53, 53, 49, 47 and 42 yds., Clark Cougar kicker Webb Williams was named co-champion of the 2010 Texas A&M Kicking Camp in the Field Goal competition.  Over 100 kickers from around the state and nation attended the camp, including several college prospects who competed in punting, kickoff, and long snapping contests.  Williams made the finals by making FGs of 42 and 47 yds. in the preliminary round, going to the finals on Kyle Field with approximately 17 others.

It was a good weekend for the senior kicker who plans to attend Texas A&M and who was also named to Dave Campbell’s Texas Football pre-season All State team in the annual release of the football guru’s magazine.

Congratulations!

Coaches McGhee, Alexander and Robbins

Former students, players, parents, coaches and friends gathered together for a night of memories and thanks to honor Athletic Coordinator and Head Coach Lloyd Alexander at a casual retirement party organized by the Clark Athletic Booster Club.

Several former players, including the Clark Texas Football Club, were able to give thanks and share memories of the coach who began his career at Clark the first day the doors opened.

Dressed in a Hawaiian shirt, Coach A thanked those in attendance and spoke briefly to the crowd about his appreciation for the Clark community and especially the expectation by Clark athletes and fans to win, which, he said, made his job easier.

The highlight of the evening was an announcement by Jeff Schorr, the Clark Texas Football Club founder, that their annual scholarship (this year – $3000) would from here on out be named the Lloyd Alexander scholarship.  This year’s recepient will be named in a few days.

The Clark Texas Football Club is an organization of former Clark coaches and players.
