This sports biography is 306 pages long (370 pages with the 1460 endnotes) and includes 49 photos. The book covers Cloddy’s 14 years as a high school coach at six different South Dakota high schools (Forestburg, Fedora, Alpena, Centerville, Yankton, and Huron) and his 30 years coaching and teaching at the University of South Dakota. He was a pioneer in the integration of college athletics.

Dwane Clodfelter has been aptly described as both a gentleman and a “true character”. CLODDY, written by his son, Kim, is a testament to hard work, courage, and loyalty. To purchase CLODDY, go to the “Store” page on his website at http://kimclodfelter.com/store/
