Each week, the Clawson Athletic Department will highlight two of our student-athletes who excelled in athletics during the previous week! Here are this week's Athletes of the Week:

The Trojan Leadership Council (TLC) strives to improve leadership skills among our student-athletes while helping to enhance the energy and enthusiasm into Clawson Athletics. Members help coordinate spirit events, sportsmanship activities, update social media and help at home events, as well as service learning opportunities to our community. TLC will works to offer resources, tools and opportunities that will help build leaders and in turn, create the best culture possible at CHS!

As part of our goal to enhance the energy and enthusiasm into Clawson Athletics, the TLC is creating "Spotlights" on our athletes and coaches throughout the year. Check out our latest addition:
