 A HOUSE RESOLUTION TO RECOGNIZE AND COMMEND THE FIRST BAPTIST SCHOOL BASEBALL
 TEAM FOR WINNING THE 2010 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS
 AA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP, AND TO HONOR THE TEAM'S OUTSTANDING PLAYERS, COACHES,
 AND STAFF.

   05/25/10  House  Introduced and adopted HJ-7

TO RECOGNIZE AND COMMEND THE FIRST BAPTIST SCHOOL BASEBALL TEAM FOR WINNING THE 2010 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS AA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP, AND TO HONOR THE TEAM'S OUTSTANDING PLAYERS, COACHES, AND STAFF.

Whereas, on May 13, 2010, the fully primed First Baptist School baseball team powered past W.W. King Academy 12-2 to grab the 2010 South Carolina Independent School Association Class AA State Championship title; and

Whereas, Head Coach King Walker and his assistant coaches, with grueling practices, hard work, and determination, built their baseball program into a championship team that refused to settle for second best. They also instilled lessons in respect and discipline into these young athletes that will stand them in good stead all their lives; and

Whereas, excitement over this title win was especially intense because everyone was waiting to see if the Hurricanes could bring home the school's second consecutive baseball state championship. These dedicated players did not disappoint their supporters, and elated First Baptist fans started making plans to see the team do it again in 2011; and

Whereas, in spite of losing eight seniors from last year's team, the Hurricanes, who know what to do on the field, kept their championship momentum going to grab the top prize once again; and

Whereas, the House of Representatives takes great pleasure in recognizing the young men of the First Baptist School baseball team for leading with excellence both in the classroom and on the field and expects to hear of continued great achievements in the years 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 commend the First Baptist School baseball team for winning the 2010 South Carolina Independent School Association Class AA State Championship, and honor the team's outstanding players, coaches, and staff.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Headmaster Thomas E. Mullins and Head Coach King Walker of First Baptist School.
