Adam Clark, a 2003 graduate of Owen County High School and a senior at Centre College, brought a few of his teammates to Owen County High School Monday to lend a hand during the first official high school football practice of the season. The college players ran an impromptu clinic, splitting the Owen County skill players into four groups, for running backs, wide receivers, safeties and defensive backs. Above, a pair of Centre players work with defensive backs on various drills. Below, Clark serves as quarterback, passing to junior Daniel Buchanan.
