Junior RB Ryan Jones bulls past Matadors

The season’s first football scrimmage involving the varsity, JV and freshman teams ended with mixed results, especially if you read local media reports.  As expected, the Clark varsity, who returned several starters from last year’s state semifinal team, looked good on defense along with some new faces in new places.  The offense also looked ready, scrimmaging without Senior quarterback Hayden Greenbauer, receiver Joe Vasquez, center Robert Chapman, OL Anker Wiggins as well as others.  Several starters from last year watched from the sideline as Sophomore QB Josh Kern guided the offense to a TD in a short game-like portion of the scrimmage with a pass to sophomore receiver Brandon Yates.  Both the JV and freshman teams also looked good in their portions of the scrimmage against the Seguin Matadors.

The Gazette-Enterprise of Seguin also watched the scrimmage.  Read what they had to say about it here.

The Clark Cougar varsity football team will kick off the season with a scrimmage against the Seguin Matadors on August 15, 2009 in Seguin.  Coach Lloyd Alexander and his staff will get an early peek at this year’s team against the Matadors, who went 2-8 last year.  Of particular interest will be the defensive matchup against Seguin OL Joseph Cheek, a 6’7″, 250 lb. junior who just verbally committed to play for Mike Sherman and Texas A&M.
