Basketball Honors 2017 Seniors - Eric ClampittEric Clampitt

This is my fourth year playing Force Basketball. I had never picked up a basketball prior to joining FORCE, and it’s been a great experience. I have learned a great deal from my team mates and want to thank them for their support and friendship over the years. I also want to thank Coach Josh for pushing me to be a better player and a better person. I am currently enrolled in classes at Bossier Parish Community College and plan to transfer to Louisiana Tech and major in Aviation. I would like to thank my parents for educating me, loving me, and supporting me. I would like to thank my siblings for being my biggest fans and always willing to travel and cheer for Basketball. My favorite bible verse is Philippians 4:13, I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.
