AMES, Iowa--Iowa State senior forward Rahshon Clark won Ralph A. Olsen Most Valuable Player Award honors at the 2007-08 Iowa State men’s basketball banquet Sunday evening. Clark was voted MVP by his teammates.
“This is a great honor for me,” Clark said. “The guys on the team could have picked anybody else. I know my numbers were not as good as some of the other players, so I feel extremely grateful that they felt I was the MVP of the team.”
A native of Queens, N.Y., Clark will go down in history as one of the most versatile and fan-favorite Cyclones in school history. The 6-6 swingman thrilled the Hilton crowd with his high-flying dunks and his tenacity on the defensive end throughout his career. Clark, who averaged 8.3 points and 6.2 rebounds this past season, capped off his career by becoming the only player in Big 12 history to record 1,000 points, 100 steals, 100 3-pointers and 100 blocks. He currently ranks 23rd in career scoring (1,075) and 13th in career rebounding (670) on
ISU’s all-time charts.
