A concurrent RESOLUTION

 

TO CONGRATULATE THE T.L. HANNA HIGH SCHOOL BOYS GOLF TEAM AND COACHES ON THEIR IMPRESSIVE WIN OF THE 2024 CLASS AAAAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE AND TO SALUTE THEM ON A FABULOUS SEASON.

 

Whereas, the air on your face and the ground under your feet feel different when you reach the top of the mountain. The T.L. Hanna High School Yellow Jackets found that out on Tuesday, May 14, 2024, when they knocked off second-place Chapin to claim the 2024 Class AAAAA State Championship in boys golf; and

 

Whereas, T.L. Hanna stormed back from a five-shot deficit and won by 10 shots in defending its Class AAAAA state championship, its second in a row; and

 

Whereas, after Monday's opening round at the Country Club of Lexington, the Yellow Jackets trailed co-leaders Dorman and Chapin. Hanna pulled away behind a 1-under-par 71 by junior Caden Olsommer, who finished in fifth place among individuals. Sophomore Erik Erlenkeuser shot 72, and freshman Bennett Scaletta shot 73 to join Olsommer on the All-State team. The Yellow Jackets shot 291 on Tuesday, six shots better than their opening round, for a 593 total; and

 

Whereas, with justifiable pride, Head Coach Eric Bona, along with Assistant Coaches Logan Hogg, Matt Harbin, and Jeff Brookman, watched the Yellow Jackets raise their brand-new state title trophy; and

 

Whereas, the members of the T.L. Hanna High School boys golf team have given their school and community reason to be proud of their accomplishments, and the General Assembly takes great pleasure in adding its collective voice to the encomiums flowing in to this outstanding group of young athletes. Go, Yellow Jackets! Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

 

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, congratulate the T.L. Hanna High School boys golf team and coaches on their impressive win of the 2024 Class AAAAA State Championship title and salute them on a fabulous season.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Walter Mayfield and Head Coach Eric Bona of T.L. Hanna High School.
