A house RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE Lexington HIGH SCHOOL VARSITY COMPETITIVE CHEER SQUAD, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR A STELLAR SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2022 SOUTH CAROLINA CLASS AAAAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Lexington competitive cheer squad captured the state trophy at the state competition held at the Colonial Life Arena in Columbia on Saturday, November 19, 2022; and

Whereas, to the cheers of their exuberant fans, the Lexington Wildcats' competitive cheer squad reclaimed the state title by defeating nearest rival River Bluff High School and defending champion Chapin High School with an overall score of 341; and

Whereas, although this is the program's fourth state championship since the school's designation as class AAAAA and the second in only three years, the Lady Wildcats were denied the championship last year when they came in second to Chapin. Lexington also won state championships at Class AAAA in 2013 and 2015; and

Whereas, a week before the state competition, the Lady Wildcats tied with River Bluff at the qualifier, which gave the squad renewed incentive to execute jumps, stunts, tumbling, and transitions superbly in a choreography with an ever-advanced degree of difficulty; and

Whereas, in a sport that exacts precision, grace, and strength, Head Coach Leigh Watson and her skilled coaching staff capitalized on their own passion and training to produce a championship-caliber team and teach these athletes life principals that will prove invaluable through life; and

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives appreciates the esteem and pride that the cheerleaders have brought to their school and their community, and the members look forward to following their future success in the days to come. 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 Lexington High School varsity competitive cheer squad, coaches, and school officials for a stellar season and congratulate them for winning the 2022 South Carolina Class AAAAA State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Dr. Ryan Pool, principal of Lexington High School, and Coach Leigh Watson.
