Hannah has been dancing on and off since she was little but just recently started back into it when she started Hotshotz her freshman year. She initially joined Hotshotz “because I wanted a close family, friend, relationships within the school, and at the same time be able to participate at Allatoona and do what I love the most.” Coach Mattingly says, “Hannah Clark always has a positive attitude, has great grades, and puts in extra work aside from team practice. She gets to practice early to stretch and just achieved a very tough dance skill. Hannah also volunteers for charity in her spare time.” Her favorite memory “was when we won state. Everyone worked so hard, and we were all so happy that it paid off.” Hannah’s advice for younger players is: “Hard work beats talent. There’s always room to do better, and as long as you put in that extra effort, you’ll succeed farther than you’ve ever imagined.”
