HOUSE RESOLUTION NO. 89 Commending the Centreville High School football team.

Agreed to by the House of Delegates, January 24, 2014

WHEREAS, the Centreville High School football team showed strength and determination by winning the Virginia High School League Group 6A state championship in December 2013; and

WHEREAS, the championship victory by the Centreville High School Wildcats capped a perfect 15 - 0 season; and

WHEREAS, the 2013 championship game was a re-match between the Centreville Wildcats and Oscar Smith High School, who faced off in the 2011 state championship game; and

WHEREAS, taking an early lead, the Centreville Wildcats finished the first half with a three-touchdown lead; and

WHEREAS, with less than ideal weather conditions, the Centreville Wildcats' defense played smart, holding Oscar Smith to just one touchdown; and

WHEREAS, the Centreville Wildcats finished strong, with their veteran offense running the ball in for the final score of the game, winning the state championship by a score of 35 - 6; and

WHEREAS, their storied and undefeated season is a statement to the talent and dedication of the players, the leadership of the head coach and coaching staff, and the support of the Centreville High School community; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED by the House of Delegates, That the Centreville High School football team hereby be commended for winning the 2013 Virginia High School League Group 6A state championship; and, be it

RESOLVED FURTHER, That the Clerk of the House of Delegates prepare a copy of this resolution for presentation to Chris Haddock, head coach of the Centreville High School football team, as an expression of the General Assembly's admiration for the team's skill and commitment.
