Remembering Clark Yarbrough
The community surrounding Sachse football as well as Ouachita Baptist University are in mourning following the sudden death of Mustang football alumni Clark Yarbrough. The defensive lineman collapsed on Sunday-- just days after a 42-32 Ouachita Baptist victory over Oklahoma Baptist on Thursday, September 1st. VYPE DFW takes a moment to remember Yarbrough and his impact on the Sachse football program.

During his time as a Mustang, Yarbrough was a great impact on Sachse's varsity defense where he played both his junior and senior seasons. Yarbrough recorded 26 solo tackles and 93 total tackles in a Mustangs' jersey. He caused three fumbles, 25 quarterback hurries, and recorded six sacks on opposing quarterbacks.
With Ouachita Baptist, the defensive lineman was named an All-Great American Conference honorable mention during the 2021-22 football season last year after recording 27 tackles in 11 games. During the team's season opener this past Thursday, Yarbrough tallied two tackles. The team released a post highlighting some of Yarbrough's teammates' memories of playing with and knowing him:
Clark lived out his favorite Bible verse, James 4:10, which says “Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up.” Read more about Clark as a child of God, a son, a student, a friend, and a teammate: https://t.co/16pSamAviX⁰⁰#BringYourRoar #FinishEmpty pic.twitter.com/IxSWeSVKcN
