A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE DORMAN HIGH SCHOOL VARSITY WRESTLING TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR A REMARKABLE SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2016 CLASS AAAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Dorman High School wrestling team of Spartanburg County took top honors at the state competition held at Dreher High School in Columbia on Saturday, February 13, 2016; and

Whereas, to the cheers of their exuberant fans, the Dorman High Cavaliers captured their school's first-ever state wrestling title by defeating the Ashley Ridge High School Swamp Foxes 34-25 in the duals championship; and

Whereas, Dorman defeated the first- and second-ranked teams in the State during the playoffs and topped off the team's inaugural championship with a 20-2 record for the season; and

Whereas, the Cavaliers recorded four pins during the title meet, including one to open the match in the 152-pound weight class and a pin at 220 that pushed Dorman to a 19-6 lead. The Swamp Foxes closed the gap to 19-16, and the Cavaliers answered with consecutive pins at 120 and 126, pushing their lead to 31-16. After Ashley Ridge managed a win at 132, Dorman sealed the title with a decision at 138; and

Whereas, in a sport that demands strategy, strength, mental fortitude, and individual excellence, Head Coach Chad Singleton and his skilled coaching staff maximized their own athletic ability and training to forge a championship team and teach these athletes lessons that will prove invaluable through life both on and off the mats; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciate the pride and recognition that the Dorman Cavaliers have brought to their school and their community and look to hear of their continued achievements in the days to come. 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 Dorman High School varsity wrestling team, coaches, and school officials for a remarkable season and congratulate them for winning the 2016 Class AAAA State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Ken Kiser and Coach Chad Singleton.
