VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE SPARTANBURG CHRISTIAN ACADEMY GIRLS AND BOYS CROSS COUNTRY, VOLLEYBALL, BOWLING, AND BOYS VARSITY BASKETBALL TEAMS, THEIR COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR OUTSTANDING AND EXTRAORDINARY SEASONS AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2020 OR 2021 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS 2A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLES IN ALL FIVE SPORTS.
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Spartanburg Christian Academy girls and boys cross country, volleyball, bowling, and boys varsity basketball teams took home state titles from all five of their team's state championship competitions in the 2020-2021 school year; and
Whereas, in October 2020, the Spartanburg Christian girls track team outpaced the Lady Warriors nearest competitor, Northside Christian, to win the state meet 30-78, the team's fifteenth state trophy in the last sixteen years. Although the team is led by several outstanding older students, two sixth graders finished the meet at fourth and fifth place to secure the team's lead; and
Whereas, on the same day, the Spartanburg Christian Academy boys track team ran the competition into the ground with four of the top five runners on the track. The Warriors handed Oakwood Prep a stunning loss of 30-54; and
Whereas, the Lady Warriors' volleyball team captured the fifth straight state victory, this year's win over Northside Christian in October 2020, when the ladies defeated Northside with blocks sandwiched between well-placed kills and aces in a 3-0 tournament of 25-18, 27-25, and 25-17; and
Whereas, in February 2021, the Spartanburg Christian co-ed bowling team, heavily weighted with stand-out athletes in other sports, knocked down all comers to claim the SCISA 2A state championship. Warrior Ethan Collier averaged 238 over a three-game set to win the individual state title; and
Whereas, again in February, the Spartanburg Christian boys varsity basketball team successfully defended the Spartanburg Warriors state title against the Dillon Christian Warriors and claimed another state trophy in a 68-44 victory; and
Whereas, when on the court, the field, the track, or the lanes, sporting events teach students valuable lessons of teamwork, prowess, and healthy competition, so that win or lose, sportsmen carry on to attempt even greater goals throughout their lives; and
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciates the pride and recognition that the Spartanburg Christian Academy athletes have brought to their school and their community, and the members look to hear of their continued achievements 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 Spartanburg Christian Academy girls and boys cross country, volleyball, bowling, and boys varsity basketball teams, their coaches, and school officials for outstanding and extraordinary seasons and congratulate them for winning the 2020 or 2021 South Carolina Independent School Association Class 2A State Championship titles in all five sports.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Headmaster Rob McDonald and Athletic Director Sean Rogers.
