Career

College and Amateur

Clark played college soccer at Southern Methodist University for three years from 2002 to 2004, and in 2005 he played for the Boulder Rapids Reserve team in the USL Premier Development League.^[1]

Professional

In February 2006 he officially signed a developmental contract with the Colorado Rapids, and was with the team until 2010.

During training on August 11, 2009, Clark injured his ACL, causing him to miss the remainder of the 2009 campaign. One year later, during a match against the San Jose Earthquakes, Clark tore the same ACL, which again forced him to miss the remainder of the season.

On September 15, 2010, Clark was traded to the Houston Dynamo with allocation money in exchange for Brian Mullan and a fourth-round pick in the 2013 MLS SuperDraft.^[2]

International

On July 11, 2009, Clark made his debut with the United States against Honduras in the 2009 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
