Clyde Hetrik

Clyde Hetrick was inducted into the THPA Hall of Fame in 1998 at the State Singles Championship tournament in Waco, TX. Clyde's claim to fame is being the best Statistician the THPA had ever seen. During most of the 1980's, Clyde crunched numbers each week to update the ringer percentages of the hundreds of Texas members. Clyde began pitching horseshoes at family picnics and reunions before joining the THPA in 1981; he fell into his role as statistician naturally. In 1987, he was awarded the Mose Sanderson Sportsmanship Award for his dedication to the THPA and his love for the game.
