Bio Bits

Clark started playing volleyball at 18 and was a standout college player at both Santa Barbara City College and Pepperdine where he graduated in 1994 with a Business Administration degree. He was the 1990 City of Santa Barbara Athlete of the Year, and was first-team all-conference in 1989 and 1990. Clark was a middle blocker on Pepperdine’s National Championship team in 1992. In 1993, he won a gold medal at the U.S. Olympic Festival. Clark has played professionally in Indonesia. Clark earned over $10,400 in 2001 with four top seven finishes in six domestic starts. His best domestic finishes are seconds in 2000 with Bill Bouillianne at Deerfield Beach, Fla., and in 2001 with Adam Jewell in Virginia Beach, Va. Clark and Boullianne won the 1999 Mexican Open for the first FIVB title for a United States team since the 1996 season.

Personal: Is an only child who lists Charles Barkley as his role model. His favorite movie is Caddyshack and enjoys watching anything on Comedy Central. Stevie Ray Vaughn is his favorite band and his favorite meal is a Bud Light.  Clark was a child actor and appeared in an episode of “CHIPS.” If he weren’t playing volleyball he would be surfing.
