A SENATE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE LEXINGTON HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM ON WINNING THE 2013 CLASS AAAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, in a battle of the cats, the Lexington High School baseball team grabbed top honors at the state title series on Friday, May 17, 2013, in a match that saw the Wildcats defeat the third-ranked Blythewood Bengals 4-0; and

Whereas, Josh Reagan went the distance by scattering three hits, Dalton Addy had two hits, and Brandon Camp added an RBI double that lifted top-ranked Lexington to a 4-0 win and bought the Wildcats the Class AAAA State Championship before an estimated 6,240 fans at Carolina Stadium, its sixth in school history; and

Whereas, Lexington High, which finished the season 28-5, won its sixth state championship overall and its first since 1999; and

Whereas, Reagan was brilliant in earning his second win in the three-game championship series that witnessed a 2-1 Wildcat victory. He finished the season 11-0 and beat the Bengals 5-2 on Monday in a complete-game four-hit effort; and

Whereas, to add to an already sweet year, Head Coach Brian Hucks was named 2013 South Carolina High School Baseball Coach of the Year for all classifications, while senior catcher Nick Ciuffo was named South Carolina AAAA State Player of the Year; and

Whereas, in addition, Lexington senior left-handed pitcher Josh Reagan and junior center fielder Ryan Brown were also named to the All-State team; and

Whereas, proud of these fine student athletes, the South Carolina Senate appreciates the recognition the Lexington High School baseball players have brought to their school and community, and the members look to hear of many more victories for the school in the coming seasons. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the South Carolina Senate, by this resolution, recognize and honor the Lexington High School baseball team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them on winning the 2013 Class AAAA State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Principal Melissa Rawl and Coach Brian Hucks.
