||
WHEREAS, The girls' varsity basketball team from Saint Mary's | ||
Hall in San Antonio enjoyed an outstanding 2022-2023 season, | ||
claiming the district championship and advancing to the Texas | ||
Association of Private and Parochial Schools state tournament for | ||
the first time in the program's history; and | ||
WHEREAS, During the regular season, the Barons finished 25-8 | ||
and went 12-2 against their league rivals; on February 9, the squad | ||
defeated Victoria St. Joseph High School 74-39 to claim the | ||
school's inaugural District 4-5A basketball crown; and | ||
WHEREAS, After a bye in the first round, Saint Mary's Hall | ||
opened the state playoffs by defeating Fort Bend Christian Academy, | ||
and the Barons went on to triumph over San Antonio Christian School | ||
to punch their ticket to the state tournament in Waco; in the 5A | ||
semifinal, they matched up against a talented team from Houston | ||
Second Baptist School; the Saint Mary's Hall players put forth an | ||
exceptional effort but saw their memorable season come to an end, | ||
posting a final record of 27 wins and 9 losses; and | ||
WHEREAS, Throughout the year, the Barons received valuable | ||
contributions from each member of the roster: freshmen Kathryn | ||
Tubb, Eleanor Pulis, Bianca Rodriguez, Isabella "Beya" Chase, and | ||
Maddie Florence, sophomores Emily Ton, Saviandra Trevino, and | ||
Natalia Chapa, juniors Anna Vaquiax, Blue Gomez, Abby Winter, Pinky | ||
Gomez, and Jay Vasan, and seniors Luz Chapa and Julia Garcia; these | ||
determined student-athletes were ably guided by head coach Matt | ||
Hayes and assistant coach Makayla Mabry, and the players received | ||
vital support from Luz Chapa and Natalia Chapa in their roles as | ||
team managers; and | ||
WHEREAS, The Barons' success is a source of great pride to the | ||
entire Saint Mary's Hall community, including students Francesca | ||
Fischer, Form 8, and Camilla Fischer, Form 6, the daughters of State | ||
Representative Trey Martinez Fischer, and they join with their | ||
classmates in offering special congratulations to the varsity | ||
squad; and | ||
WHEREAS, Excelling through determination and hard work, the | ||
Saint Mary's Hall Barons have established a new level of | ||
achievement for the school's basketball program, and they are | ||
indeed deserving of recognition for a job well done; now, | ||
therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby congratulate the Saint Mary's Hall girls' | ||
varsity basketball team on a successful 2022-2023 season and extend | ||
to the athletes, coaches, and staff sincere best wishes for the | ||
future; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for the Barons as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
House of Representatives. |
