CLARK FORK — At a jamboree held earlier this year at Sandpoint High, the Wampus Cats really impressed. Clark Fork, who has five seniors, went toe-to-toe with both Sandpoint and Bonners Ferry’s varsity squads, which may be a sign that the team is slated for one of their best year’s yet.
Longtime head coach Heath Beason said he is excited for this year, and for the use of the shot clock, which he believes is going to really play in favor of the Wampus Cat offense, an offense in which all five players are often playing a variation of all five positions. Beason described this year's team as one that’s fast-paced and doesn’t hold back.
“I haven’t been this excited in a long time,” Beason said. “We have some challenges and things we need to work on, but my five seniors are great kids/athletes, we have some juniors, sophomores, and freshmen coming up that are going to make an impact too.”
