Clarence Clemons Personal 1963 High School Yearbook
This 1963 yearbook, documenting the teenage years of Clarence Clemons was found in his personal possessions, in a storage facility several years after his passing.
As a youth, Clemons also showed potential as a football player, and graduated from Crestwood High School (now Crestwood Middle) before attending Maryland State College[3] on both music and football scholarships. At 6′ 4″ and 240 pounds,[6] he played as a lineman on the same team as Art Shell and Emerson Boozer and attracted the attention of the Cleveland Browns, who offered him a trial. Clemons also tried out for the Dallas Cowboys.[7] However, the day before, he was involved in a serious car accident which effectively ended any plans of a career in the National Football League.[8][9][10][11] He would eventually be posthumously inducted into the university’s Athletics Hall of Fame on February 24, 2012.[12]
