A house RESOLUTION

 

TO CELEBRATE THE HEATHWOOD HALL GIRLS VARSITY BASKETBALL TEAM ON ITS IMPRESSIVE WIN OF THE 2024 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS 4A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

 

Whereas, ready for the challenge, the Heathwood Hall girls varsity basketball team drove past Northwood Academy, 58-56, to capture the 2024 South Carolina Independent School Association 4A State Championship, held on Friday, February 23, 2024; and

 

Whereas, it was a sweet back-to-back win, a double crown for the Lady Highlanders, since they also took home the state title in 2023; and

 

Whereas, to give even more sweetness to an already highly satisfying victory, the title game earned Heathwood its fifth all-time state championship in girls basketball; and

 

Whereas, the Sumter Civic Center echoed with the cheers of exuberant Heathwood Hall fans as the Lady Highlanders showed spectators how to win a championship; and

 

Whereas, near the end of the title game, the Highlanders led 55-51 with 1:10 left in this rematch of last year's championship. Northwood buried a 3-pointer from the top of the key to tie it up with 22 seconds left. Nail-biter time. Heathwood's Sabreya Monsanto took the inbounds pass and rushed up the court. She found a wide-open Camilliea Gore, who missed the layup, but the junior grabbed the loose ball rebound from the Northwood player and tossed it up for the go-ahead score. Lauren Jacobs led Heathwood with 23 points, and Monsanto added 21; and

 

Whereas, such victories do not come overnight; they take determination and hard work. With proven consistency in both, Head Coach Brionna Zimmerman has built her girls basketball program into one of championship caliber and trained her athletes not to settle for second best; and

 

Whereas, the Lady Highlanders have brought great pride and recognition to their school and community, and the House is pleased to have this opportunity to recognize such an outstanding 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, celebrate the Heathwood Hall girls varsity basketball team on its impressive win of the 2024 South Carolina Independent School Association Class 4A State Championship title.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Head of School Chris Hinchey and Head Coach Brionna Zimmerman of Heathwood Hall Episcopal School.
