A senate RESOLUTION

 

TO CELEBRATE THE GREENWOOD CHRISTIAN SCHOOL BOYS BASKETBALL TEAM ON WINNING THE 2026 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION 3A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE AND TO CONGRATULATE THE PLAYERS AND COACHES ON THEIR FIRST STATE CROWN.

 

Whereas, ready for the challenge, the Greenwood Christian School boys basketball team put away Spartanburg Christian 56-52 to capture top honors at the 2026 South Carolina Independent School Association 3A State Championship, held on Saturday, February 28, 2026; and

 

Whereas, such victories do not come overnight; they take determination and hard work. With proven consistency in both, Head Coach Jonathan Davis built his boys basketball program into championship caliber and trained his athletes not to settle for second best; and

 

Whereas, junior Isaiah Scott-Palacios led all scorers with 24 points, while senior standout Ty Kennedy added 19.

Whereas, the Senate takes great pleasure in saluting the fine athletes of the Greenwood Christian School boys basketball team, and the members have confidence that the Hawks will continue to excel in the years ahead.  Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the Senate:

 

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, celebrate the Greenwood Christian School boys basketball team on winning the 2026 South Carolina Independent School Association 3A State Championship title and congratulate the players and coaches on their first state crown.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Dr. Chris Johns, head of school, and Head Coach Jonathan Davis of Greenwood Christian School.
