 A HOUSE RESOLUTION TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE LEXINGTON HIGH SCHOOL VARSITY
 CHEERLEADING SQUAD, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON
 AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2015 CLASS AAAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP
 TITLE.

   01/12/16  House  Introduced and adopted (House Journal-page 35)

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE LEXINGTON HIGH SCHOOL VARSITY CHEERLEADING SQUAD, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2015 CLASS AAAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Lexington High School cheerleading squad took first place at the state competition held at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia on Saturday, November 21, 2015; and

Whereas, to the delight of their fans, Lexington's Lady Wildcats garnered their second state trophy in the past three years when they bested their nearest rival, Dutch Fork High School, in the final tally; and

Whereas, the squad brought the added advantage of more than one hundred of their own cheering fans to the stands, fans filled with enthusiastic school spirit to urge their Wildcats on at the competition; and

Whereas, the Wildcat cheerleaders spent the fall practicing jumps, stunts, and tumbling, gaining confidence to execute their routines with a degree of difficulty challenging enough to command a spot at the championship meet; and

Whereas, in a sport that demands precision, grace, and strength, Head Coach Shannon Canady and her skilled coaching staff maximized their own athletic ability and training to mold a championship team and teach these student athletes lessons that will grow more valuable throughout their lives; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciate the pride and recognition that the Lexington High School cheerleaders have brought to their school and their community and look to hear of their continued success 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 Lexington High School varsity cheerleading squad, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them for winning the 2015 Class AAAA State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Melissa Rawl and Coach Shannon Canady.
