Warner Robins will travel to Camden County Friday for a 7:30 p.m. game. Clark’s first field goal of the night set a new Demon distance record of 50 yards. “I didn’t know they were really going to go for it,” Clark said. “I thought we were going to do a fake. I asked my holder if we were really going to kick it.” His kick broke Jason Sikes’ 13-year record. He kicked a 49-yard in a game against Taylor County in 1993. Clark’s first field goal of the night tied the existing record of 12 field goals in a season held by three other kickers.

His four field goals were sandwiched between two first quarter and two fourth quarter touchdowns. Clark wasn’t the only Demon trusting his feet.
