GREENSBORO, NC – Clemson junior Matt Clark, from Hyannis, MA, finished in second place with a career-best time of 24:09.40 in the 8K race at the Great American Classic in Cary, NC over the weekend. His performance helped him earn ACC Performer of the Week honors. It marks the second such honor of his career, as he also earned the accolade on September 27, 2004.
