A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND CONGRATULATE ABBEVILLE HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR WRESTLER BENJAMIN GLACE ON CAPTURING THE 2014 CLASS AA STATE INDIVIDUAL CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE (195-POUND WEIGHT).

Whereas, this year, the state wrestling championships produced a new king of the mat, Benjamin Glace of Abbeville High School, who captured the top prize in the 2014 Class AA State Individual Championship (195-pound weight); and

Whereas, in a sport that requires mental fortitude and strategy, individual excellence, and strength, Ben grappled his way to victory and maintained a superior position to pin down the title; and

Whereas, the Clemson-bound senior, who plans to enter the university's College of Engineering and Science this fall, has qualified for the state competition each year he has wrestled for Abbeville. On March 1 at the Anderson Civic Center, scene of the 2014 state wrestling finals, all his years of hard work culminated with his winning the coveted individual crown, and taking home a state champion's trophy to attest to the victory; and

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives applauds Ben for his success, which would not have been achieved without the outstanding training given him by Abbeville High School's Coach Daniel Huggins, who in his first season as a varsity wrestling coach has proven himself a talented mentor; and

Whereas, Ben Glace has brought pride and recognition to his school and community, and the House of Representatives looks forward with interest to hearing of this fine young athlete's 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 congratulate Abbeville High School senior wrestler Benjamin Glace on capturing the 2014 Class AA State Individual Championship title (195-pound weight).

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Benjamin Glace.
