A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO HONOR AND CONGRATULATE THE CLINTON HIGH SCHOOL SCIENCE OLYMPIAD TEAM AND ITS COACHES ON CAPTURING THE 2012 SCIENCE OLYMPIAD DIVISION C STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the Clinton High School Science Olympiad team has once again swept to victory at the state championship, setting up an impressive four-year winning streak at the Newberry College-hosted event; and

Whereas, with steadfast determination, the thirty team members, fifteen on each of two teams, practiced faithfully almost every Saturday and often several times during the week in order to retain their championship form; and

Whereas, at the state-title event, the results of their hard work were as clear as their well-trained minds: The Red Devils earned eleven gold medals, two silver medals, and two bronze medals. They also earned the right to participate in the national competition in Orlando, Florida, hosted by the University of Central Florida in May; and

Whereas, the Science Olympiad tournaments on the state level consist of a series of events that cover various disciplines of science, including biology, earth science, chemistry, physics, computers, and technology; and

Whereas, using his own well-honed scientific skills, Head Coach Michael Mack shaped his team into a focused group that brain-powered its way past fourteen other teams to grab the state crown; and

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives takes great pleasure in saluting the Clinton High School Science Olympiad team on its latest victory, and the members look with interest toward hearing of the continued success of the team's fine young scholars. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor and congratulate the Clinton High School Science Olympiad team and its coaches on capturing the 2012 Science Olympiad Division C State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Maureen Tiller and Head Coach Michael Mack.
