"We are extremely fortunate to have Coach Clough on our coaching staff," said Hunter Sims, HPU head football coach. "He brings a wealth of experience and football intelligence to our program. We are looking forward to his leadership in directing the offense for Team 111. He is a man who is invested in the lives of student-athletes and pushes them to become great men."
