TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Indiana State defensive back Kimal Clark picked up his second preseason All-American nod as the safety was named to the FCS Football Central Second Team on Thursday morning.
 
Clark, a transfer from Central Connecticut State, was previously named a Stats Perform FCS Preseason Third Team All-American this summer as the Lackawanna, N.Y. native heads into his first fall camp with the Sycamores football team.
 
Clark is the reigning Northeast Conference Defensive Player of the Year after setting the Central Connecticut State record in tackles (117), while adding three pass breakups. He was also honored as a Stats Perform Third Team All-American postseason selection following the 2024 season.
 
Clark looks to lead an Indiana State defense that lost its top six tackling leaders, including the 17th member of the Sycamores' 300-tackle club, Geoffrey Brown. He is set to join with MVFC All-Newcomer selection Jorge Valdes to provide a powerful 1-2 punch in the Sycamore secondary.
 
Clark recorded five double-digit tackling efforts in the 2024 season on his way to finishing 16th in FCS in solo tackles (5.1) and 26th overall in total tackles (9.0) per game. He recorded a career-high 18-tackle game against Massachusetts, while adding 13 stops in games against both Fordham and Robert Morris.
 
Clark is set to be one of the leaders in the new-look defense under first-year defensive coordinator David Elson and joins Dallas Westhoff, Lucas McAllister, Valdes, and Braxton Sampson among the top Sycamores returning on the defensive side of the ball.
