A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
TO RECOGNIZE AND CONGRATULATE THE WILSON HALL FOOTBALL TEAM ON ITS IMPRESSIVE WIN OF THE 2013 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
Whereas, supremely ready to tackle the challenge, the Wilson Hall football team nailed the 2013 South Carolina Independent School Association (SCISA) Class AAA State Championship title, defeating Hammond 34-27 on November 23, 2013; and
Whereas, the stadium echoed with the cheers of exuberant Wilson Hall fans, pleased to see their confident predictions of victory realized as a satisfying end to an undefeated 13-0 season. By the end of the title game, the Barons' admirers were already looking with anticipation to a repeat performance next year; and
Whereas, it was Wilson Hall's defense that came up big as the Barons powered to a clear victory at Charlie W. Johnson Stadium in Columbia, but it was Wilson Hall quarterback William Kinney's 22-yard scoring run with 1:54 remaining that sealed the win for the Barons; and
Whereas, making a sweet win all the sweeter, the Barons' strong effort at the championship bout secured their first football title since 2003; and
Whereas, such victories do not come overnight; they take determination and hard work. With proven consistency in both, Coach Bruce Lane has built his football program into championship caliber and forged a team that refuses to settle for second best; and
Whereas, the Barons have brought great pride and recognition to their school and community, and the members of the General Assembly are pleased to have this opportunity to recognize such a wonderful group of young athletes. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:
That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, recognize and congratulate the Wilson Hall football team on its impressive win of the 2013 South Carolina Independent School Association Class AAA State Championship title.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Headmaster Fred Moulton and Coach Bruce Lane of Wilson Hall.
