A house RESOLUTION

 

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE WILSON HALL BOYS CROSS COUNTRY TEAM AND THEIR COACHES ON THEIR SENSATIONAL PerforMANCE AT THE SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION 4A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM ON THEIR SECOND CONSECUTIVE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

 

Whereas, on Saturday, November first, at Heathwood Hall Episcopal School, the Wilson Hall boys cross country team took home the state title, marking the team's second consecutive state championship win. The Barons' first place title was won with a remarkable 31-point lead over the second-place team, John Paul II Catholic School, beating them by just one point the previous year; and

 

Whereas, the Wilson Hall Barons have been focused all season on defending their state title and pushing themselves to do even better this year. The Wilson Hall boys broke the school record for the fastest team finish, as well as breaking the SCISA state meet record and the SCISA all-time meet record with a combined time of one hour, twenty minutes, and fourteen point forty-eight seconds. The team delivered many impressive performances, highlighted by Trip Hunt, who shattered the school record by more than 20 seconds with a time of 15:26.20. Hunt captured the individual state title, finishing eight seconds ahead of last year's champion and earning Wilson Hall its first individual state title in three years. All seven of the team's runners placed within the top eighteen, each finishing under seventeen minutes, leading the team to an overall victory and capping off a historic day for the program; and

 

Whereas, in a sport that demands endurance as well as mental and physical strength, Head Coach Reid Schwartz and his dedicated coaching staff ̶ Dustin Smith, Kristine Smith, Catherine Kelley Schwartz, Grier Schwartz, and Blane Russell ̶ combined their knowledge, passion, and commitment to excellence to guide their athletes to remarkable success. The lessons and life principles that they have taught these athletes will continue to shape them into well-rounded individuals on and off the course for the rest of their running careers, and all throughout their lives; and

 

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives value the pride and recognition that the Wilson Hall boys cross country team have brought to their school and their community and look forward to following 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 Wilson Hall boys cross country team and their coaches on their sensational performance at the South Carolina Independent School Association 4A State Championship and to congratulate them on their second consecutive State Championship title.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Head of School Brent Kaneft and Head Coach Reid Schwartz of Wilson Hall School.
