A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
TO RECOGNIZE AND CONGRATULATE THE TIMBERLAND HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAM ON ITS IMPRESSIVE WIN OF THE 2011 CLASS AA-DIVISION I STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
Whereas, supremely ready for the challenge, the Timberland High School football team nailed the 2011 Class AA-Division I State Championship title, defeating Woodruff 20-3 on December 2, 2011; and
Whereas, Benedict College's Charles W. Johnson Stadium echoed with the cheers of exuberant Timberland fans, pleased to see their confident predictions of victory realized as a satisfying end to an outstanding 14-1 season. By the end of the title game, the Wolves' admirers were already looking with anticipation to a repeat performance next year; and
Whereas, such victories do not come overnight; they take determination and hard work. With proven consistency in both, Coach Art Craig has built his football program into a championship team that refuses to settle for second best; and
Whereas, making a scintillating win even brighter, the championship victory gave Timberland its first football title since the school's opening in 1996; and
Whereas, in addition, Coach Craig was named 2011 High School Sports Report Class AA-Division I Coach of the Year; and
Whereas, the Wolves have brought great pride and recognition to their school and community, and the members of the Senate 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 General Assembly, by this resolution, recognize and congratulate the Timberland High School football team on its impressive win of the 2011 Class AA-Division I State Championship title.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Kerry Daugherty and Coach Art Craig of Timberland High School.
