Clark, a native of Tampa, Fla., was named the third head coach in program history at a press conference at Joe Walton Stadium Dec. 19, 2017. “One of the things that is important about working with the young men at Robert Morris is helping them grow in more ways than just as football players,” Clark said. “We’re trying to build better men, better husbands, better fathers.” In his first season on the sidelines with the Colonials, Clark helped RMU takes its first steps in making a return to the top of the Northeast Conference.

I believe in discipline and enthusiasm. I’m going to stay the course with that.” Clark in his first head coaching position after spending four years at the University of Albany, a member of the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA).

Surprising Sports Treasures. Beaver Falls., PA, July 17, 2012— With the help of NFL stars, some very unique sports artifacts and a storied class of Circle of Achievement honorees, The Larry Bruno Foundation (LBF) will unveil its new Hall of Achievement Sports Museum at the Carnegie Free Library of Beaver Falls in a series of events on August 2-4, 2012. “You might expect a big city sports museum to have signed helmets, jerseys, and lots of game gear from NFL Pro Bowl players, but you might not expect that in Beaver Falls,” said Ron Main, Chairman of the Larry Bruno Foundation. Continuing, “Working with NFL legends like Joe Namath we plan to unveil some ‘hidden gems’ as our Foundation regularly contributes to a living, growing must-see exhibit for sports fans in Western Pennsylvania and the world.” Each year, the Larry Bruno Foundation, named for the legendary “Magical Coach” Larry Bruno, who spawned countless area coaches and who coached memorable players including Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Namath, will add to the displays in the Hall of Achievement. Some of this year’s additions include the Pro Football Hall of Fame Historic Hometown Plaque for Joe Namath, and the heaviest (and perhaps the most expensive) sports book ever published to chronicle the first 40 Super Bowls.
