Clark Men Win NWAC Championship

by Katie Patton, The Independent 

For the first time in 20 years Clark College brought the Northwest Athletic Conference championship back to Vancouver following a win in the final game.

After beating three teams in a row, the Penguins capped their tournament run against the No. 1 seed Edmonds Tritons (24-5) and beat them handily 78-59 on March 10 at the Toyota Center in Kennewick, Wash. They set tournament records for the best defensive half in league history, and broke a 45-year-old record for the largest margin of victory.

Clark had three players named to the 2015 All-Tournament team: MVP – Evan Garrison; 1st Team – Orlando Vance; and 2nd Team – Bryan Berg.

Clark won the men’s NWAC title with a 78-59 win over Edmonds on March 10, 2015.
