While at Franklin, Clark was named the Gatorade National Player of the Year. He hit .646 with nine doubles, five triples, six home runs, 52 walks and five strikeouts in 28 games as a senior.

Clark became the state's highest draft pick since Bryan Bullington (Ball State) went No. 1 overall in 2002.  The highest an Indiana player was drafted straight out of high school was when Kokomo's Pat Underwood, Detroit, went No. 2 to Detroit in 1976.
