A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE HAMMOND SCHOOL WRESTLING TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR A REMARKABLE SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2019 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS 3A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Hammond School wrestling team of Richland County took top honors at the state duals held at Ben Lippen High School in Columbia on Saturday, February 2, 2019; and

Whereas, to the delight of their exuberant fans, the Hammond Skyhawks defeated the Heathwood Hall Highlanders 39-32, after being denied a trophy at the state duals for four of the past five years, to earn the program's sixth state championship; and

Whereas, the Skyhawks enjoyed a 33-0 advantage over the Highlanders after pins from Hammond's Owen Hales and Henry Cole and forfeit victories for Drew Turner, Jameson Phillips, and Jake Lalumondier before a 6-0 decision for sixth-grader Luke Martin in the 106-pound weight class; and

Whereas, four Hammond seniors reaped the success of their hard work during their high school careers and will leave the team strong to continue its powerful program; and

Whereas, in a sport that demands mental fortitude and individual excellence and strategy, Head Coach Austin Hood and his skilled coaching staff maximized their own athletic ability and training to forge a championship-caliber team and teach these athletes lessons that will prove invaluable through life both on and off the mats; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciate the pride and recognition that the Skyhawk grapplers have brought to their school and their community and look to hear of their continued achievements 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 Hammond School wrestling team, coaches, and school officials for a remarkable season and congratulate them for winning the 2019 South Carolina Independent School Association Class 3A State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Head of Upper School Joseph Lumpkin and Coach Austin Hood.
