VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
A house RESOLUTION
TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE Chesnee High School girls strength TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2024 SOUTH CAROLINA CLASS AA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Chesnee girls' strength team of Spartanburg County captured the South Carolina Class AA Strength Team Championship title at the female strength team state competition, which was held at Blythewood High School on November 9, 2024; and
Whereas, to the delight of their growing list of fans, the Chesnee Lady Eagles defeated a competitive field of opponents with a score of 13 points. Their nearest challenger was Chesterfield High School scoring only 8 points; and
Whereas, Lady Eagles Olivia Tolleson, Bixley Koon, and Liana Kreydich, each scored 3 points each; teammate Emma Barrington scored 2 points, and Hayden Roberts and Maggie Blanton scored 1 point each; and
Whereas, in strength team competitions, athletes placing first, second, third, and fourth in their respective events are recognized on the podium. Chesnee's podium athletes included MerriElizabeth Cable who placed third in her event and Olivia Tolleson, Bixley Koon, and Liana Kreydich, who each placed fourth in theirs; and
Whereas, the victory was made all the sweeter because this win was the first AA Strength Team Championship ever offered by the South Carolina High School Strength Coaches Association at a state female strength meet; and
Whereas, in a sport that requires individual determination, strength, and perseverance, Head Coach David Jones and his skilled coaching staff used their own athletic experience and training to forge a championship-caliber team and teach these athletes life principles that will endure far beyond the mats; and
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives values the pride and recognition that the Chesnee strength team members have brought to their school and their community, and the House looks forward to following the team's 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 Chesnee High School girls strength team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them for winning the 2024 South Carolina Class AA State Championship title.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Gerstenacker and Coach David Jones.
