Whereas, ready to play as hard as necessary to reach the goal, the Pinewood Preparatory School baseball team defeated Northwood 5-3 on May 14, 2009, to capture the 2009 South Carolina Independent School Association Class AAA State Championship title; and

Whereas, excitement over this title win was especially intense because it made school history, marking the Summerville team's first baseball title win, and elated Pinewood fans started making plans to see the Panthers repeat history next year; and

Whereas, Coach Evan Powell, with the able assistance of Allan DeToma and Kenan Keller, shaped a ball team that played heads-up defense and got key hits, laying the foundation for the victory; and

Whereas, with this exciting triumph, the Panthers crown a season record of 22-8; and

Whereas, team members enjoyed the further satisfaction of seeing one of their own, senior Taylor Wall, named to the SCISA All-State baseball team; and

Whereas, the House takes great pleasure in recognizing the young men of the Pinewood Preparatory School baseball team for leading with excellence both in the classroom and on the field and expects to hear of continued great achievements in the years 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 commend the Pinewood Preparatory School baseball team for its outstanding season and for capturing the 2009 South Carolina Independent School Association Class AAA State Championship, and honor the team's exceptional players, coaches, and staff.
