Whereas, the Summerville High School "Green Wave" Wrestling Team clinched the 1998 Region 6-AAAA State Wrestling Championship with a dramatic 38-29 victory over Rock Hill High School, the four-time defending state champions; and

Whereas, the "Green Wave" Wrestling Team finished their outstanding season with an overall season record of 14-2; and

Whereas, this impressive level of competition could not have been accomplished without the leadership and guidance of Head Coach Kenny Walker, along with Assistant Coach Steve Laprad; and

Whereas, the countless hours of practice, hard work, and sacrifices certainly reflect the Summerville High School Wrestling Team's determination and dream of becoming the 1998 Region 6-AAAA State Champions; and

McDonald, Erick Odom, Denard Perry, Nick Pescazio, Joe Power, Geoff Roberts, Quinn Tolbert, Phillip Turner, Richard Warner, and Chris Wills; and

Whereas, the success of the 1998 Summerville High School Wrestling Team has brought great pride and recognition not only upon Dorchester County, but also to the Palmetto State; and

Whereas, the members of the General Assembly would like to publicly recognize and congratulate each player, Assistant Coach Steve Laprad, school officials, and especially Head Coach Kenny Walker upon the conclusion of a truly memorable season. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina hereby congratulate the Summerville High School "Green Wave" Wrestling Team for an exceptional season and on winning the 1998 Region 6-AAAA State Wrestling Championship.
