It’s a long drive from Hays, Kansas to Nashville, Tennessee…820 miles long to be accurate. But when the call came for a chance to kick along with a full academic scholarship Lane Clark jumped at the chance.

Eagle Radio’s Dustin Armbruster had a chance to catch up with former Hays High Indian Lane Clark as he gets ready to graduate from Tennessee State University. Clark, a four sport high school athlete, was the kicker for the TSU Tiger’s football team the past four seasons.

Interview with Lane Clark

Clark started to get national attention after breaking the school record for longest field goal twice in the same game his junior season. He hit a 54 yard field goal to establish the school record, only to outdo himself later in the game with a 57 yard make.

So far he has been named to eight preseason and postseason All-American teams with more awards possible after this 2017 season.

Lane Clark will graduate in December, three and half years after stepping foot on campus.
