TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE LANDRUM HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS VARSITY CROSS-COUNTRY TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2013 CLASS AA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Landrum High School girls varsity cross-country team of Spartanburg County took top honors at the state competition in Columbia on Saturday, November 9, 2013; and
Whereas, with the sweet taste of victory still in their mouths from their 2012 state victory, the Landrum Lady Cardinals returned to the state finals and defeated second-place Bishop England High School by one point; and
Whereas, the nail-biting win rested on the Lady Cardinals' accomplishments in the last thousand meters of the day; and
Whereas, the team's championship effort was bolstered by the outstanding performance of four runners who received all-state accolades: Laura Ford, Sarah Cash, Grace Valentine, and Grace Furman; and
Whereas, in a sport that demands endurance, strength, and speed, Head Coach Jeremy Darby and his skilled coaching staff capitalized on their own athletic ability and training to build a championship team and teach these athletes lessons that will prove invaluable through life both on and off the track; and
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciate the pride and recognition that the Landrum High School runners have brought to their school and their community and look to hear of their continued accomplishments in the days ahead. 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 honor the Landrum High School girls varsity cross-country team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them for winning the 2013 Class AA State Championship title.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Brian Sherman and Coach Jeremy Darby.
