In 1985, The Sporting News named Clark an All-American and he later won the Golden Spikes Award from USA Baseball. A teammate of Rafael Palmeiro, the two were known as "Thunder and Lightning". Clark and Palmeiro have been known to dislike each other and have had heat since their days at Mississippi St. Unlike Palmeiro, Clark has never been linked to nor accused of steroid use.

[a] girl one day flared out and told the principal “the only mission opening before a girl in his school was to marry one of those candidates [for the ministry].” He said he didn’t know but it was. And when at last that same girl announced her desire and intention to go to college it was received with about the same incredulity and dismay as if a brass button on one of those candidate’s coats had propounded a new method for squaring the circle or trisecting the arc.”
