A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE SPARTANBURG DAY SCHOOL BOYS VARSITY CROSS COUNTRY TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2015 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS AA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Spartanburg Day School cross country team took top honors at the South Carolina Independent School Association state competition held at Heathwood Hall Episcopal School in Columbia on October 31, 2015; and

Whereas, delighting their fans, the Spartanburg Day School Griffins earmed a 65-61 victory at the championship meet to defeat their nearest opponent, Hilton Head Preparatory School; and

Whereas, in a contest where the top five runners were separated by only twenty-five seconds, the Griffins reaped the benefits of having emphasized pack running all season and edged out the competition to come in first; and

Whereas, pacing the Griffins as they had all season, Devin Srivstava, ninth overall, and Rett Foust, tenth overall, earned All-State honors. Cody Greer, thirteenth overall; Alex Freedman, fourteenth overall; and Asa Davis, fifteenth overall, completed Spartanburg Day's top five runners. Rounding out the Griffins' scoring were Anthony Ramirez, twenty-second overall, and Sam Freedman, twenty-third overall; and

Whereas, in a sport that demands endurance, strength, and speed, Head Coach Shawn Wilson and his skilled coaching staff capitalized on their own athletic ability and training to hone a championship team and teach these athletes valuable lessons that will last a lifetime; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciate the pride and recognition that the Spartanburg Day cross country runners have brought to their school and their community and look to hear of their continued accomplishments 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 Day School boys varsity cross country team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them for winning the 2015 South Carolina Independent School Association Class AA State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Spartanburg Day School's Upper School Administrator, Jack MacMullan, and Coach Shawn Wilson.
