VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
A house RESOLUTION
TO APPLAUD THE DORMAN HIGH SCHOOL BOYS VOLLEYBALL TEAM ON NETTING THE 2025 CLASS AAAAA DIVISION I STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE AND TO SALUTE THESE ATHLETES AND THEIR COACHES ON A FABULOUS UNDEFEATED SEASON.
Whereas, if there is such a thing as a dynasty in the early years of boys volleyball in South Carolina sports, Dorman has become one. With a 3-0 sweep of Carolina Forest on Saturday, November 1, 2025, at Columbia's A.C. Flora High School, the Dorman High School Cavaliers won their fourth straight state championship, third straight state title sanctioned by the South Carolina High School League, and second straight Class AAAAA Division I crown; and
Whereas, the win for Dorman (31-0) was also the seventy-third straight victory of a streak dating back to September 16, 2023; and
Whereas, Head Coach Andrew Copeland of Dorman declared that while the match went down in the books as a 3-0 win, he recognized a lot of fight and talent on the Carolina Forest side of the court; and
Whereas, ranked Number 1 in the State and Number 1 in the nation on MaxPreps, Dorman will graduate nine seniors. Most programs would consider Dorman's next season a rebuilding year, but Coach Copeland, who openly remembers when he and his players "were literally celebrating getting three hits and getting it over the net" and compares that time to the present situation, is not worried; and
Whereas, rather, he is thankful for the depth his team has across the board at every position and avers that some players on the Cavaliers' bench would be starters if they were at another school. Dorman's depth, he feels, is what keeps the Cavaliers competitive and what sustains their play at a high level; his players know the team has people right behind them who can compete; and
Whereas, throughout the season, the team challenged itself by becoming battle-tested, including competing in its first-ever out-of-state tournament in Virginia Beach. There, Dorman faced some of the top talent in the Southeast region, including teams ranked in the national Top 25. The Cavaliers went on to win the Endless Summer Volleyball Tournament and by the end of the season had securely nailed their Number 1 state and national standing; and
Whereas, appreciative of the well-deserved recognition these athletes have brought to their school and community, the House of Representatives congratulates the Cavaliers, and the members look with interest toward hearing of their further successes both on, and off, the volleyball court. Go, Cavaliers! Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, applaud the Dorman High School boys volleyball team on netting the 2025 Class AAAAA Division I State Championship title and salute these athletes and their coaches on a fabulous undefeated season.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Bryant Roberson and Coach Andrew Copeland of Dorman High School.
