Dash and Head Coach James Clarkson agree to new contract
The Houston Dash and Head Coach James Clarkson have agreed to a new contract, the club announced today.
Clarkson, the third head coach in franchise history, heads into his third year on the touchline. Through two seasons, he has compiled a record of 14-15-6 across all competitions, including a mark of 7-3-1 in 2020. His leadership was crucial during the 2020 campaign, which was interrupted on multiple occasions by the global coronavirus pandemic.
Despite the start-and-stop nature of the season, Clarkson led the Dash to the club’s first ever league title on July 26 when Houston defeated the Chicago Red Stars to capture the 2020 NWSL Challenge Cup.
