Whereas, during this satisfying season, Coach Eidson was named SCISA Coach of the Year, while Bruce Haynes was selected as SCISA's Mr. Basketball; and

Whereas, the team's exciting 2009-2010 roster included participating in a tournament in Freeport, Grand Bahamas during Thanksgiving and in a tip-off tournament in Asheville, North Carolina, in January; and

Whereas, both on and off the court, these players have set an example in their school and community for others to follow; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to recognize the athletic achievements of these outstanding young men and look forward to hearing of their accomplishments in the future. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and commend the Pinewood Preparatory School boys basketball team of Summerville for winning the 2010 South Carolina Independent School Association (SCISA) Class AAA State Championship title, and congratulate the players, coaches, and school officials on yet another victorious season.
