A house RESOLUTION

 

TO HONOR THE WILLIAMSBURG ACADEMY FOOTBALL TEAM AND COACHES ON THEIR IMPRESSIVE WIN OF THE 2025 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS 1A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

 

Whereas, not to be denied the crown, the Williamsburg Academy football team drove past the Colleton War Hawks 34-14 to capture decisively the 2025 South Carolina Independent School Association (SCISA) Class 1A State Championship, held on Saturday, November 22, 2025, at South Carolina State's Oliver C. Dawson Stadium; and

 

Whereas, the Stallions, who had played in four consecutive state title games and won only in 2022, came away this time having accomplished their mission to take back the crown - and they did it with style, using an opportunistic defense to nail the victory; and

 

Whereas, such triumphs do not come overnight; they take determination and hard work. With proven consistency in both, Williamsburg's Head Coach Will Furse, ably assisted by a fine coaching staff, built his football program into a championship team that refused to settle for second best, and he saw his first season as head coach finish at the top of the mountain; and

 

Whereas, for the players, their coaches, and exhilarated Stallion fans, it was a fully satisfying wrap-up to an outstanding 11-1 season; and

 

Whereas, the Williamsburg Stallions have given their school and community reason to be proud of their accomplishments, and the members of the House of Representatives take great pleasure in adding their collective voice to the many encomiums flowing in to this outstanding group of young athletes. Go, Stallions! Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

 

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor the Williamsburg Academy football team and coaches on their impressive win of the 2025 South Carolina Independent School Association Class 1A State Championship.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Headmaster Glenn Matthews and Head Coach Will Furse of Williamsburg Academy.
