TO SALUTE THE HARTSVILLE NATIONAL DIXIE YOUTH O-ZONE ALL-STARS BASEBALL TEAM AND COACHES FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM ON CAPTURING THE 2018 DIXIE YOUTH BASEBALL STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

Whereas, baseball is a game of speed, power, precision, and agility, but to excel in baseball, a team must combine these talents with teamwork and good sportsmanship; and

Whereas, Head Coach Trey Gibson, Assistant Coach Kirk Askins, Assistant Coach Bruce Douglas, and the players of the Hartsville National Dixie Youth O-Zone All-Stars baseball team captured the 2018 Dixie Youth Baseball State Championship by convincingly uniting all these attributes in one unstoppable team and defeating Sumter two games to one at the Weekend of Champions, held July 20-21, 2018, in Moncks Corner; and

Whereas, further, Hartsville National had previously defeated Lynches River, Lancaster, North Myrtle Beach, Seneca, and Clinton at the state tournament; and

Whereas, after claiming the crown at the state competition, the Hartsville National O-Zone All-Stars represented South Carolina at the Dixie Youth World Series, an exciting run that saw an array of records fall. Among the numerous individual records were Quez Hadley's 34 strikeouts during the state tournament and Treion McFarland's 5 runs scored in one game. Quez Hadley also threw a no-hitter against North Myrtle Beach. As a team, Hartsville National rewrote the state's offensive record book, a feat highlighted by a 29-run performance in Union; and

Whereas, it is with great pleasure that the House pauses to recognize the accomplishments and dedication of these fine athletes and their coaches and to congratulate them on their success. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, salute the Hartsville National Dixie Youth O-Zone All-Stars baseball team and coaches for an outstanding season and congratulate them on capturing the 2018 Dixie Youth Baseball State Championship.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Head Coach Trey Gibson for the Hartsville National Dixie Youth O-Zone All-Stars baseball team.
