TO CELEBRATE THE GILBERT HIGH SCHOOL BOYS GOLF TEAM ON WINNING THE 2023 SOUTH CAROLINA HIGH SCHOOL LEAGUE CLASS AAA REGION 5 CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, on May 2, 2023, the members of the Gilbert High School boys golf team packed up a coveted trophy, the impressive proof of their first-place victory at the 2023 South Carolina High School League Class AAA Region 5 Championship tournament, held at the Ponderosa Country Club in Batesburg-Leesville; and

Whereas, the Gilbert Indians powered their golf game to the top with team members Owen Price, Vinny Esposito, Dakota Chavis, Luke Harvey, Finn Mortenson, and Harrison Chavis; and

Whereas, adding to the sweetness of a sweet victory, Owen Price was a medalist with a score of 78, Vinny Esposito was named All-Region with a score of 83, and Dakota Chavis was selected as All-Region with a score of 84; and

Whereas, the House of Representatives takes great pleasure in saluting the Indians on a fine season, and the members look forward to hearing of their further accomplishments in the days ahead. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
