Whereas, the Rams triumphed over the defending Class AAAAA Rock Hill Bearcats and the Byrnes High School Rebels, both powerhouses in their division, in well-fought victories to secure their win in the Upper State playoffs; and
Whereas, sophomore, Grantt Hopkins, secured the Rams' first class AAAAA state championship with his pinfall victory against River Bluff's, John Brown, with a final score of 41-30; and
Whereas, this is the first state title win for the Rams wrestling team since their 2012 Class AAAA state title; and
Whereas, the Rams fell behind when the River Bluff Gators took the lead with wins in the 195 pound, 220 pound, and heavyweight divisions; and
Whereas, junior Josh Wilkerson fought back to reclaim the lead with a first-period pinfall victory, while senior Letrell Westfield then garnered a 14-4 decision in his match against River Bluff's Brandon Riley; and
Whereas, Coach Robby Bell and his skilled coaching staff maximized their own experience and passion in a sport that demands mental stamina, strength, and individual excellence 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 House of Representatives take great pleasure in recognizing the young athletes of the Hillcrest High School wrestling team and anticipate with interest learning of their continued praiseworthy achievements. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
