   01/29/20  House  Introduced and adopted (House Journal-page 4)

TO APPLAUD THE NATION FORD HIGH SCHOOL VOLLEYBALL TEAM ON NETTING THE 2019 CLASS AAAAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE AND TO CONGRATULATE THESE ATHLETES AND THEIR COACHES ON A FINE SEASON.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the Nation Ford High School volleyball team captured the 2019 Class AAAAA State Championship title; and

Whereas, on the road to the state crown, the Lady Falcons proved that "domination" isn't a strong enough word to describe this Nation Ford team; and

Whereas, the Lady Falcons, enduring just five losses all season and winning all but two sets in their postseason run, repeated as AAAAA state champions on Saturday, November 9, 2019, in Lexington, sweeping the Lexington Wildcats 3-0 (25-17, 25-20, 25-12); and

Whereas, over the past two years, the Lady Falcons have won nearly 100 matches and have made things look easy on the court. Nation Ford finished the season with a 27-match win streak and a 48-5-1 record, breaking the school record for wins it set last year; and

Whereas, the 2019 state title was the third in the program's history. It joins last year's first-ever 5A state title plus one 3A state title, won in 2010; and

Whereas, rightly proud of her team, Head Coach Carrie Christian had already tested her players this season with a tough schedule, and it paid off; and

Whereas, appreciative of the well-deserved recognition these athletes have brought to their school and community, the House of Representatives congratulates the Lady Falcons, and the members look with interest toward hearing of their further successes both on and off the volleyball court. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, applaud the Nation Ford High School volleyball team on netting the 2019 Class AAAAA State Championship title and congratulate these athletes and their coaches on a fine season.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Jason Johns and Head Coach Carrie Christian of Nation Ford High School.
