TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR JACOB CARRON OF LUGOFF-ELGIN HIGH SCHOOL FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE HIM FOR WINNING THE 2018 SOUTH CAROLINA CLASS AAAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE IN WRESTLING.
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that Jacob Carron of Lugoff-Elgin High School took top honors at the South Carolina High School League state tournament held in Anderson on February 24, 2018; and
Whereas, a long, frustrating season, marked by missed matches after being placed on concussion protocol, ended in victory for Jacob Carron. On Saturday, February 24, 2018, Jacob's hard work came to fruition as he won the AAAA state individual championship at one hundred fifty-two pounds; and
Whereas, he was one of seventeen wrestlers from Kershaw County who qualified for the two-day championship by finishing in the top four at their respective Upper State and Lower State qualifying tournaments; and
Whereas, Jacob would complete a 3-0 weekend with an 11-2 major decision victory over a talented Travelers Rest wrestler in the championship pairing and won his first state championship; and
Whereas, this Lugoff-Elgin High School senior is a two-time All-Region wrestler and a three-time Southern Slam Placer with over one hundred career wins. He ended the season with a record of 36-10; and
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are grateful for the pride and recognition that Jacob Carron has brought to his school and community and look to hear of his future success in the days to come. 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 Jacob Carron of Lugoff-Elgin High School for an outstanding season and congratulate him for winning the 2018 South Carolina Class AAAA State Championship title in wrestling.
