TO RECOGNIZE AND CONGRATULATE THE EASTSIDE HIGH SCHOOL BOYS SOCCER TEAM ON ITS EXCELLENT SEASON AND IMPRESSIVE WIN OF THE 2011 CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
Whereas, supremely ready for the challenge, the Eastside High School boys soccer team nailed the 2011 Class AAA State Championship title, defeating Myrtle Beach 2-1; and
Whereas, the stands echoed with the shouts of exuberant Eagle fans, pleased to see their confident predictions of victory realized; and
Whereas, in wrapping up the title, Eastside scored a pair of second-half goals, less than a minute apart, and those goals made all the difference for the Eagles; and
Whereas, team members enjoyed the pleasure of packing up Eastside's fifth state title trophy in soccer, the first such since 2005, imparting a satisfying ending to an exciting 18-9 season; and
Whereas, such victories do not come overnight; they take determination and hard work. With proven consistency in both, Head Coach Scott Halkett and Assistant Coach Nomar Rodriguez have built their soccer program into a championship team that refuses to settle for second best; and
Whereas, the Eagles have brought great pride and recognition to their school and community, and the members of the House of Representatives are pleased to have this opportunity to recognize such a wonderful group of young athletes. 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 congratulate the Eastside High School boys soccer team on its excellent season and impressive win of the 2011 Class AAA State Championship title.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Mike Thorne and Coach Scott Halkett of Eastside High School.
