A HOUSE RESOLUTION
TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE DORMAN HIGH SCHOOL VARSITY BOYS TRACK TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON, AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2011 CLASS AAAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Dorman High School boys varsity track team of Spartanburg County took top honors at the state competition held at Spring Valley High School in Columbia on May 11 and 12, 2011; and
Whereas, the Dorman High School Cavaliers garnered their victory with a total of seventy points to take their third state trophy in the last five years; and
Whereas, in the 4 x 100 relay at the state meet, Cavaliers Charone Peake, Carrington Fernandors, Tony Davis, and Braxton Drummond were individual-event winners; and
Whereas, for eight consecutive seasons, the Cavaliers have finished their regular season undefeated and have placed first in their regional championship as well; and
Whereas, this year's meet record, which includes invitational track meets, tallied eighty-one wins with only one loss, and nine athletes were named to All State, the most for any team in any classification; and
Whereas, in a sport that demands stamina, strength, and versatility, Head Coach Jeff Buys and his skilled coaching staff used their own athletic ability and training to forge a championship team and teach these athletes lessons that will prove invaluable through life both on and off the track; and
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is grateful for the pride and recognition the members of the Dorman High School track team have brought to their school and their community and look to hear of their continued accomplishments in the days ahead. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and honor the Dorman High School varsity boys track team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season, and congratulate them for winning the 2011 Class AAAA State Championship title.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Ken Kiser and Coach Jeff Buys.
