A house RESOLUTION

 

TO CELEBRATE THE CAMDEN HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM FOR CAPTURING THE 2024 CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE AND TO CONGRATULATE THE TEAM'S EXCEPTIONAL PLAYERS, COACH, AND STAFF ON A SUPERB SEASON.

 

Whereas, on a mission to take home the gold, the Camden High School girls basketball team turned in a dominating performance at the 2024 Class AAA State Championship, netting the Lady Bulldogs a 45-22 victory over Wren on Saturday, March 2, 2024, at the Florence Center; and

 

Whereas, with the biggest prize in South Carolina high school girls basketball on the line, the Lady Bulldogs focused all their knowledge, skill, and determination, took to heart their coach's exhortations, and came through like the champs they are. The result? They captured their second straight state championship for Camden, which was also the school's fifth overall state title for the girls basketball program. In this decisive game, senior Joyce Edwards ended one of the most prolific careers in state history. Playing in front of Dawn Staley, the University of South Carolina women's basketball coach, the Gamecocks signee turned in another dominant performance with 27 points, 20 rebounds, and six blocked shots. Edwards, Camden's first McDonald's All-American, is the Gamecocks' top-ranked recruit in Staley's 2024 class; and

 

Whereas, the state championship was not the only prestigious event graced by the stand-out play of the Lady Bulldogs this season; these fine athletes also played in several renowned tournaments and showcase events, including the school's first girls game at the Chick-fil-A Classic tournament; and

 

Whereas, when the game was history, Coach Natalie Norris, herself an accomplished athlete, joined exhilarated Camden fans in witnessing the fruit of her labors as the title trophy was hoisted; and

 

Whereas, the South Carolina House takes great pleasure in recognizing the young women of the Camden High School girls basketball team for leading with excellence both in the classroom and on the court, and the members expect to hear of continued great achievements in the years ahead. Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

 

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, celebrate the Camden High School girls basketball team for capturing the 2024 Class AAA State Championship title and congratulate the team's exceptional players, coach, and staff on a superb season.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Rose Montgomery and Coach Natalie Norris of Camden High School.
