Whereas, the win also boosted Union's winning streak to five in a row to close out the season and this fine team rose to the occasion by hard work and perseverance finishing with an 11-4 record; and

Whereas, the Jackets soared in the playoffs and outscored the opposition 141-49 in four contests; and

Whereas, Union High's Head Coach Shell Dula and his staff guided the Yellow Jackets to the pinnacle of success during the 1995 football season; and

Whereas, the Yellow Jackets of Union High School exhibited outstanding talent, hard work, determination, and unity in the season just completed and are highly deserving of recognition for their accomplishments. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the House of Representatives of the State of South Carolina, by this resolution, congratulate the Union High School Yellow Jackets Football Team for winning the 1995 Class AAAA State Championship.
