She had 41 starts in goal with 30 shut-outs and 0.75 goals against average.

According to Coleman, “I Chose Coker because it offered what I was looking for in an education, in a small setting close to home. It also gave me the opportunity to play both basketball and soccer at the next level.”

Clark is from Irmo, SC, where she attended Dutch Fork High School and was a four-time letter winner in soccer.
