Scott Clark steps down as TRU men’s basketball head coach after 13 years
KAMLOOPS — The head coach of Thompson Rivers University’s (TRU) men’s basketball team of 13 years announced that the 2022-23 season will be his last.
In a news release issued Monday (Feb. 13) morning, Scott Clark announced he stepped down as head coach of the WolfPack following the end of their season on Saturday. The WolfPack state Clark will move into a new position within the department – manager, high performance sport – on March 1.
“The demands of the job, as a head coach, are hard to meet at this time,” Clark says. “Just evaluating things moving forward, I don’t have the energies to do the job the way I would like to do the job. I’m extremely proud of all the guys that I’ve been able to coach… When you recruit kids, they often say, ‘oh I want to be a pro’, the truth is that all these guys that have played for me are pros. It’s satisfying to see that I have a lot of former players that have gone on to great things – and I’m not the reason for the success, but I hope that I can share in part of that.”
