 A HOUSE RESOLUTION TO CELEBRATE THE BELTON-HONEA PATH HIGH SCHOOL COMPETITIVE
 CHEER TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR A SUPERB SEASON AND TO
 CONGRATULATE THEM ON CAPTURING THE CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

   04/06/21  House  Introduced and adopted (House Journal-page 7)

TO CELEBRATE THE BELTON-HONEA PATH HIGH SCHOOL COMPETITIVE CHEER TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR A SUPERB SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM ON CAPTURING THE CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, with its usual precision and grace, the Belton-Honea Path High School competitive cheer team proved its tenacity and earned gold at the Class AAA state competition, held at the Florence Center on Saturday, December 19, 2020; and

Whereas, the victory made it two in a row for Belton-Honea Path, the title win last year being the first in school history for the Lady Bears. In capturing the 2020 crown, Belton-Honea Path piled up 282 points and soared past nearest competitor Blue Ridge; and

Whereas, in a season like no other, during which the entire sport was fighting a pandemic, the Lady Bears did not allow difficulties to stop them from excelling and earning the top prize; and

Whereas, thanks to the first-class leadership of Head Coach Stephanie Cooley-Hughes, the talented athletes of the Belton-Honea Path competitive cheer team once again showed out like the champions they are; and

Whereas, proud of the fine achievements of these young athletes, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives take great pleasure in applauding the Belton-Honea Path competitive cheer team and in extending best wishes for much 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, celebrate the Belton-Honea Path High School competitive cheer team, coaches, and school officials for a superb season and congratulate them on capturing the Class AAA State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Mary Boarts and Head Coach Stephanie Cooley-Hughes of Belton-Honea Path High School.
