Whereas, the Fort Mill High School Yellow Jacket boys cross country team won the Class AAAA State Championship following a remarkable undefeated season against South Carolina schools; and

Whereas, the Yellow Jackets posted an impressive record this season by placing fifth in the Nike Team National Southeast Rankings and winning both the Region Championship 3-4A and the York County Championship; and

Whereas, their winning season on the local, state, regional, and national level are a testament to the team's dedication, talent, and teamwork; and

Whereas, the team is comprised of David Willis, Mark Blackmon, David Huckaby, Travis Owens, Josh Mabry, Daniel Kalshoven, Jon Kawakami, Ryan Fielden, Jarred White, and Kevin Coleman. The team was lead to victory under the helm of Head Coach Scott Barefield and Assistant Coach Marc Pyrc; and

The Yellow Jackets were able to have an outstanding season ending in a Class AAAA State Championship because of their amazing talent, dedicated teamwork, and unwavering commitment to excellence. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
