TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE DUTCH FORK HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS TRACK TEAM FOR CAPTURING THE 2011 SOUTH CAROLINA CLASS AAAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE IN THE 4X800 RELAY AND 100-METER DASH.
Whereas, supremely ready for the challenge, the Dutch Fork High School girls track team bested all comers in two competitions of the South Carolina Class AAAA State Championship, held at Spring Valley High School on May 13 and 14, 2011; and
Whereas, with the cheers of exultant Dutch Fork fans filling their ears, the Lady Silver Foxes nabbed top honors in the 4x800 relay on Friday, May 13, 2011, the runners for this event being Amelia Syfert, Haley Saxby, Jen Quindlen, and Taylor Quindlen. In the process of earning this trophy, these athletes broke the Dutch Fork school record for the event, set in 2009; and
Whereas, on Saturday, May 14, 2011, Dutch Fork triumphed again when Raveen Golston crossed the finish line at the head of the pack in the 100-meter dash, earning her the first-place medal; and
Whereas, adding further luster to an already scintillating showing at the state track meet, all of these winning runners were named to All-State for their respective events; and
Whereas, such victories do not come overnight; they take determination and hard work. With proven consistency in both, Coach Brian Mincel, assisted by Coach Corey Wright of the Dutch Fork boys track team, has built his girls track program into a powerhouse that has proved its mettle; and
Whereas, the Lady Silver Foxes have brought pride and recognition to their community and to their school, and the members of the House of Representatives are pleased to have this opportunity to recognize such a wonderful group of young athletes. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and honor the Dutch Fork High School girls track team for capturing the 2011 South Carolina Class AAAA State Championship title in the 4x800 relay and 100-meter dash.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Principal Gregg L. Morton and Coach Brian Mincel.
