A HOUSE RESOLUTION
TO OFFER THE CONGRATULATIONS OF THE MEMBERS OF
THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE STATE OF
SOUTH CAROLINA TO THE SOUTH AIKEN HIGH SCHOOL
"THOROUGHBREDS" BOYS TENNIS TEAM AND
HEAD COACH MIKE HICKS ON CAPTURING THE 1997-98
CLASS AAAA STATE TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP AND TO
PROVIDE THAT THE TEAM, COACH, AND SCHOOL
OFFICIALS SHALL BE GRANTED THE PRIVILEGE OF THE
FLOOR OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ON

Whereas, the South Aiken High School "Thoroughbreds"
Boys Tennis Team put away Spring Valley High School to clinch the
1997-98 Class AAAA State Tennis Championship; and
Whereas, that's how its been all season long for the Thoroughbreds,
who methodically marched to a perfect 22-0 mark, crushing all who
stood in their way and culminating in a 5-0 shellacking of their latest
victim, Spring Valley; and
Whereas, South Aiken, which won the school's first state title in boys
tennis, did the job with quick precision. It took less than an hour of
work to win the third state title this year for South Aiken, following
the lead of the girls tennis team and the boys basketball team; and
Whereas, this impressive level of competition could not have been
accomplished without the leadership and excellent coaching abilities
of Head Coach Mike Hicks. Coach Hicks, in his first year at the
helm, hasn't been to a state championship since he was in high school
himself; and
Whereas, the South Aiken High School Boys Tennis Team for
1997-98 included: Evan Keith Bromley; Harry Cho Cantey; Roderick
Lee Cantey; Phillip Hong Chow; Michael Douglas Huffer; Jay
Thomas Ingle; Rakesh Dinesh Jasani; Patrick Ryan Parsons; Rakesh
G. Patel; Matthew Brandon Robinson; and Jacob Bernard Sintich;
and
Whereas, winning the state championship is a true testimony to the
talent and desire for excellence of the players, coaches, and school
officials of South Aiken High School; and
Whereas, these fine young athletes have brought great pride and
recognition not only upon South Aiken High School and its loyal and
enthusiastic students and supporters, but also to the Palmetto State.
Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the House of Representatives of the State of
South Carolina hereby offer their congratulations to the South Aiken
High School "Thoroughbreds" Boys Tennis Team and
Head Coach Mike Hicks on capturing the 1997-98 Class AAAA State
Tennis Championship and provide that the team, coach, and school
officials shall be granted the privilege of the floor of the House of
Representatives on Wednesday, May 27, 1998, at a time to be
determined by the Speaker for the purpose of being recognized and
congratulated.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to
Head Coach Mike Hicks.
