H.R. No. 1000 |
|
||
WHEREAS, The Texas Christian University rifle team furthered | ||
its proud tradition of excellence by winning the overall team title | ||
at the 2019 NCAA Rifle Championship; and | ||
WHEREAS, TCU dominated the March 8 and 9 competition held in | ||
Morgantown, West Virginia, capturing the third national crown in | ||
program history; the outstanding performances by team members | ||
Elizabeth Marsh, Kristen Hemphill, Rachel Garner, Casey Lutz, and | ||
Angeline Henry enabled the Horned Frogs to take home four of the | ||
event's five trophies; in addition to the overall championship, the | ||
TCU shooters claimed the smallbore team title, while Ms. Marsh won | ||
the individual smallbore event and Ms. Hemphill collected TCU's | ||
first-ever individual air rifle gold medal, with Ms. Henry | ||
finishing a close second; and | ||
WHEREAS, Also contributing to the Horned Frogs' impressive | ||
showing during the 2018-2019 season were Noelle Christensen, | ||
Abigail Gordon, Emily Haag, Taylor Haffner, Rachel Kimbell, and | ||
Catherine Miller; the team was ably guided by longtime head coach | ||
Karen Monez, who directed TCU to national championships in 2010 and | ||
2012, and assistant coach Hannah Black; and | ||
WHEREAS, In winning a third national championship, the TCU | ||
Horned Frogs have earned a special place in the pantheon of elite | ||
NCAA rifle teams, and they may indeed take justifiable pride in | ||
their accomplishments; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby congratulate the Texas Christian University | ||
rifle team on winning the 2019 NCAA rifle national championship and | ||
extend to the competitors and coaches sincere best wishes for | ||
continued success; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for the team as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
House of Representatives. | ||
