    A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION congratulating the Lafayette Central Catholic baseball team on winning the Class A state championship, their third state championship out of the last four years.

    Whereas, The stakes for the Lafayette Central Catholic baseball team could not have been higher in the state final against Tecumseh at Victory Field. It was an opportunity to win a back to back championship, to become a dynasty with three titles in four years, and a last chance to take advantage of the eight seniors that were playing their final game;

    Whereas, In the top of the third inning, Austin Munn singled with the bases loaded, driving in two runs to give Lafayette Central Catholic a 4-1 lead;

    Whereas, Taylor Glaze pitched Lafayette Central Catholic to a 4-2 lead in the fifth inning, with a man on second, when rain forced a two-hour delay and a big decision for Head Coach Tim Bordenet;

    Whereas, Taylor Glaze told Coach Bordenet, "Coach, you are not taking me out of this game. I'm staying in it." Consequently, Taylor Glaze returned to the mound and led his team to a 4-2 victory, pitching a complete game that involved six strikeouts, six hits, and one earned run on 122 total pitches;

---

    Whereas, Senior catcher Reed Drysdale's ability to play any position, third base in the 2007 state title game and second base in the 2009 state title game, along with Taylor Glaze's masterful pitching and will to win, were just two examples of the experience Coach Bordenet believes ultimately pushed his team all season long;

    Whereas, When asked if winning a title or defending it is more difficult, Coach Bordenet said, "It's harder to defend it. You have a target on your back. We have had it all year, and our kids, we have eight seniors, they knew what it took to win. They worked so hard, and I am really proud of them, and they can finish their careers with three state titles"; and

    Whereas, The Lafayette Central Catholic baseball team is to be commended for winning the Class A state championship and congratulated for their outstanding season: Therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate     of the General Assembly

of the State of Indiana, the House of Representatives     concurring:

    SECTION 1. The Indiana General Assembly congratulates the Lafayette Central Catholic baseball team on winning the Class A state championship, their third state championship out of the last four years.
    SECTION 2. The Secretary of the Senate is hereby directed to transmit a copy of this Resolution to the Lafayette Central Catholic baseball team and Head Coach Tim Bordenet.
