A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE WILSON HALL SOFTBALL TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM ON WINNING THE 2014 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, fully prepared for the challenge, the Wilson Hall Lady Barons softball team crowned its splendid season by capturing the 2014 Class AAA State Championship title, defeating Laurence Manning Academy 1-0 at the University of South Carolina's Beckham Field; and

Whereas, in the final of the three-game series on May 14, Wilson Hall prevailed and ran home with the title trophy, followed by exultant fans who were already making plans to see the Lady Barons repeat the feat next year; and

Whereas, the confidence of Wilson Hall fans that a return trip to the state championship will be in the offing next year had a solid foundation; it was based on the knowledge that the talented and determined Lady Barons had just nailed their second consecutive title win; and

Whereas, in addition, Wilson Hall fielded a young team this year and will lose only one senior, Bailey Connor, who spoke for the entire roster when she gave full credit to God for enabling Wilson Hall to claim gold once again in 2014; and

Whereas, in the 2014 title match, the two teams went at it in grand fashion. Wilson Hall junior pitcher Holly Scott pitched out of trouble for seven of eight innings and then helped bring home the game's only run as the Lady Barons repeated as AAA softball champions; and

Whereas, Head Coach Teresa Alexander, who used her own athletic expertise to build the Wilson Hall players into a championship team, said of her program, "What you see now is a product of seven years of athletes really devoting themselves to trying to make this program something everyone is going to respect." The Lady Barons caught their coach's vision and finished the season with a 31-6 record; and

Whereas, the Wilson Hall softball players have brought great pride and recognition to their school and community, and their many admirers, including the members of the House of Representatives, look to hear of their continued accomplishments in the days ahead. 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 Wilson Hall softball team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them on winning the 2014 South Carolina Independent School Athletic Association Class AAA State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Headmaster Fred Moulton and Head Coach Teresa Alexander.
