Nice. Should help with the vertical game.

Taosman;2335886; said:Still kind of under the radar but probably the fastest player coming in. Maybe the fastest player on the team once he's here!

For all of his achievements, New Smyrna Beach's James Clark said failure is one of the first things he thinks about every morning.
Clark, the 2013 News-Journal's Boys Athlete of the Year, said he has never won a championship, and he is determined to change that.
?It is just something I will always think about, and until I change it, it will always be there,? Clark said. ?I will do all I can to get it.?
Championship or not, Clark (5-foot-11, 170 pounds) was brilliant in his final year at New Smyrna Beach High School. He signed to play football for Ohio State in February, and reported to the school ? predicted by many to be one of the nation's top programs this year ? last week. That came on the heels of a season that saw Clark haul in 49 passes for 1,112 yards and eight touchdowns while helping lead NSB to its first undefeated regular season since 1999.
Known for his blazing speed, Clark turned in the area's second fastest 100-meters time (10.48) and 200 time (21:43) at the Five Star Conference Championship. That earned him News-Journal first team all-area track and field honors for the second consecutive year.
Clark's teammate in track and football, D'Cota Dixon ? himself a heralded athlete who claims more than 30 scholarship offers for football ? said you could see Clark's success coming.
?He is such a competitor,? Dixon said. ?And what made him great was just him being humble and smart. He worked hard, and he never complained. He could compete with anyone. He was determined to beat you.?
That even translated to the classroom where Dixon said he and Clark engaged in a competition that, despite playing out away from the public eye, might be as impressive as anything the duo accomplished on the field.
?We both thrive on greatness and being successful,? Dixon said. ?That means, even in class, being successful. So, we used to compete with our grades. He finished with a 3.9 GPA and I had a 3.8.?
