Whereas, the state championship not only is the Cavaliers' first but the first in any sport for the school which opened in 1978; and
Whereas, Richland Northeast Football Coach Joe Wingard credits assistant coaches Ed Porter, Barry Mizzell, and Robin Bacon with doing "an incredible job of finding Hartsville's soft spots." He said Jay Frye and the defensive coaches did a great job of preparing the Cavaliers against a well-balanced offense; and
