Clark State Finishes Edison State Sweep With Only Four Players; Greatest Season in School History?

Clark State Finishes Edison State Sweep With Only Four Players; 

Greatest Mens Season in School History? 

 

 By Deon Cash 

The Clark State Eagles mens team finished off their final home game in dramatic style, which has been their vibe all season.

There were so much dramatics, that despite having only four players left in the game at the end, they still were able to make history and defeat Edison State 89-86 to pull off the season sweep against them. 

Coming into the season they had never beaten Edison State. 

Now they done it twice in one season. 

With the win it also guarantees their first winning season in Alstork's first season. They now sit at 15-12. 

They will finish up the season Saturday on the road facing a Cuyahoga team they literally are behind for a playoff spot. 

"It has been a very good season and we accomplished a lot of goals. These boys and our staff put left it all on the court for us each and every game. That's all you can ask for." Alstork stated as they prepare for Cuyahoga. 

Congrats on Coach Alstork and his staff for changing the culture in just one season.

Clark State Men Look To Do Unthinkable Against Edison State on Final Home Game

 Clark State Men Look To Do Unthinkable Against Edison State on Final Home Game

By Deon Cash

The Clark State Eagles did what very few thought they could do. 

(1)They legitmately competed for a spot in the Region Championship and battled for OCCAC supremacy. 

(2) Tied for 2nd place in the conference during the season.

(3) Won the most games in school history 

Along the way, they also accomplished another huge feat:

Defeating Edison State on the road. 

This had never been done in the history of the Clark State mens basketball organization. And to top it off, it was done on the road, which added a little icing on the cake. 

Coach Quinton Alstork helped elevate the program ten fold, and before the season, one of the main goals was defeating Edison State. 

When the Eagles defeated Edison State, it was a very important victory, keeping the Eagles at 2nd place in a extremely tough OCCAC. The team would celebrate, knowing that it had never been done in the programs history.

Fast forward a few weeks and in the last home game of the season, the Eagles will have the chance to achieve what no team has ever done in Clark State history:




 Defeat Edison State twice in the same year. 

The Eagles are in 4th place in the OCCAC with Edison State sitting right behind them in the 5th spot.



 So although they won't be playing for a championship, it will be a great environment as the Eagles look to move to 15-12 on the season and secure the 4th spot in the OCCAC this year. 

"I'm very proud of this team. We scrapped from the beginning of the season and we accomplished a hell of a lot in my first year. We definitely want to make history tonight." Alstork stated. 

The game will tipoff at 7:30.

Congrats to Clark State on making this Edison State Clark State game mean what it should. Another win and you could have a Rivalry on your hands.
