TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE WILSON HALL GOLF TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2015 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.
Whereas, the South Carolina Senate is pleased to learn that the members of the Wilson Hall golf team of Sumter County took top honors at the state competition held at the Hackler Course on the campus of Coastal Carolina University on Tuesday, April 28, 2015; and
Whereas, shooting a 293 on Tuesday for a two-day score of 600, the Wilson Hall Barons took the school's seventh state title in golf with a twenty-stroke lead over the Hammond School Skyhawks, Porter-Gaud placing third with a 636 and Thomas Sumter Academy fourth with a 646; and
Whereas, Christian Salzer led the Barons with a score of 146 (77-69), followed by teammates Grier Schwartz (76-74) and Coker Lowder (77-73), who each shot a 150. Walker Jones posted a 154 (77-77) for Wilson Hall, and Easton Ward finished with 158 (80-78); and
Whereas, for the seventh consecutive year, the Barons garnered the regional championship, and this year the team finished the season with an outstanding record of 51-6; and
Whereas, the Wilson Hall Barons' previous state trophies were brought home in 2001, 2000, 1995, 1991, 1989, and 1970; and
Whereas, in a sport that demands strategy and skill on the fairways as well as the greens, Coach Glen Rector capitalized on his own athletic ability and training to hone a championship team and teach these athletes lessons that will prove invaluable throughout their lives; and
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina Senate value the pride and recognition that the Wilson Hall golfers have brought to their school and their community and look to hear of their continued achievements in the years ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate:
That the members of the South Carolina Senate by this resolution, recognize and honor the Wilson Hall golf team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them for winning the 2015 South Carolina Independent School Association Class AAA State Championship.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Headmaster Fred Moulton and Coach Glen Rector.
