TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE DIXIE HIGH SCHOOL SOFTBALL TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM ON WINNING THE 2016 CLASS A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
Whereas, fully ready for the challenge, the Dixie High School softball team crowned its splendid season by capturing the 2016 Class A State Championship title; and
Whereas, the 4-0 win over East Clarendon in a two-game championship series brought the Lady Hornets to a triumphant season's end with a fine 28-4 overall record; and
Whereas, held in Turbeville at East Clarendon, the title game showed off the Lady Hornets' ability to "feed" off each other and so gain the momentum for success needed to win: and
Whereas, in a sport that demands skill, speed, and teamwork, Coach Gary Stone and his able assistant coach, Ben Snipes, capitalized on their own athletic ability and training to forge a championship team. In the process, they taught their athletes invaluable lessons that will serve them well throughout life both on and off the diamond; and
Whereas, the Dixie High School softball players have brought great pride and recognition to their school and community, and their many admirers, including the members of the House of Representatives, 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 Dixie High School softball team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them on winning the 2016 Class A State Championship title.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Lori Brownlee-Brewton and Coach Gary Stone of Dixie High School.
