VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
A house RESOLUTION
TO CONGRATULATE THE RIDGE VIEW HIGH SCHOOL BOYS BASKETBALL TEAM ON CAPTURING THE 2025 CLASS AAAAA DIVISION 1 STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE AND TO HONOR THE TEAM'S EXCEPTIONAL PLAYERS, COACHES, AND STAFF.
Whereas, fully resolved to take home the gold, the Ridge View High School boys basketball team crowned an outstanding season by netting the 2025 Class AAAAA Division 1 State Championship title, defeating Blythewood 71-47 on Friday, March 7, 2025; and
Whereas, with the biggest prize in South Carolina high school boys basketball on the line, the Blazers focused all their knowledge, skill, and determination, took to heart their coaches' exhortations, and came through like the champions they are; and
Whereas, in the first quarter, Ridge View (23-7) set the tone with a layup, two free throws, and a jumper to lead 7-0. Blythewood stormed back to take an 8-7 lead, but three free throws from the Blazers tied the game at 9-9. Then the Blazers buried two 3-pointers to put Ridge View ahead 15-9. In the fourth quarter, the Blazers outscored the Bengals 25-14 to set the final score; and
Whereas, having honed his players into a championship machine, Head Coach Joshua Staley, along with Assistant Coaches Brian Sanders, David Smith, Chris Leevy, Reginald Murray, Kenneth Hunter, and Christian Savage, saw the fruit of long and dedicated labor as the title trophy was hoisted. These gifted coaches were particularly pleased at the committed way their athletes bought into the process and followed up their AAAA State Championship from last year with their first AAAAA Division 1 title this year; and
Whereas, the House of Representatives takes great pleasure in recognizing the fine athletes of the Ridge View High School boys 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, congratulate the Ridge View High School boys basketball team on capturing the 2025 Class AAAAA Division 1 State Championship title and honor the team's exceptional players, coaches, and staff.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Dr. Brenda Mack, principal, and Head Coach Joshua Staley of Ridge View High School.
