Chris Clark, who helped lead Temple to the first of six straight NCAA Tournament berths under head coach Fran Dunphy, returned to his alma mater as the program's Video Coordinator in the summer of 2015. The 2008 Temple graduate had previously served as an assistant coach the last two seasons at Campbell University.

A four-year member of the Owls (2004-08), Clark had a breakout senior season while serving as team captain in 2007-08. The Philadelphia native (St. Joseph's Prep) led the Owls in three-point percentage (57-137, .416) and helped lead Temple to a 21-13 record and the Atlantic 10 Conference Championship as the team's sixth man. Named the Philadelphia Big 5 Most Improved Player, he increased his scoring average from 2.6 points per game as a junior to 7.5 points per game his senior season.

Besides his two years as an assistant coach at Campbell, Clark spent four seasons on the St. Francis (Pa.) staff, helping the Red Flash to two consecutive Northeast Conference tournament appearances.

Clark also has an extensive resume of community service. He has been a Big Brother Program volunteer, a Reading for Children volunteer, and has done community service at the Carousel House in Philadelphia. Additionally, he has volunteered with Midtown Parish United Methodist Church, Temple Rollin Owls Basketball League, and Cherry Hill's Martin Luther King Day.

He and his wife Sharena, have two sons, Caysen and Chase.
