HOF Spotlight Series Highlights Carlos Head

MORROW, Ga. – The Clayton State Athletics Department has introduced a new feature series that highlights members of the Athletics Hall of Fame. The next spotlight feature highlights Carlos Head, a member of the inaugural men's basketball team.  
 
Head was a member of the inaugural Hall of Fame class of four that was inducted in 2014.

A native of Morrow, Head was a four-year letterwinner (1990-94) and played on Barfield's first basketball teams. After more than 20 years in men's basketball, he still holds many of Clayton State's all-time records.

Head is the school's all-time leading scorer with 1,682 points and ranks second all-time in games played with 114 and third all-time in games started with 78. He ranks first all-time in field goals made with 608 and first in all-time in field goals attempted with 1,287. Carlos ranks second in 3-point field goals made with 132, third in all-time in rebounds with 523 and third all-time in steals with 125.

He led the Lakers to school's first championship, the 1993-94 Georgia Athletic Conference Championship. He averaged over 18 points for the team that finished the season with a 25-7 record, Clayton State's best record in men's basketball. He was selected to the NAIA All-District All-Freshman team in 1990-01 and to the All-Georgia Athletic Conference Team in 1993-94.

Head graduated with a bachelor's degree in Management (BBA) in 1995.
