| Interscholastic League 4A Division 2 state championship; and | ||
| WHEREAS, The Lady Raiders' journey to the title began with an | ||
| impressive regular-season run in which they clinched the district | ||
| crown; Randall then surged through the playoffs, dispatching | ||

| with four minutes left in the first half and took a 2-1 lead in the | ||
| 43rd minute; Wimberley knotted the score 2-2 near the end of | ||
| regulation, and the foes remained deadlocked through two overtime | ||
| periods; triumphing by a 7-6 count in the penalty kick shootout, the | ||
| Lady Raiders claimed the program's first state title in thrilling | ||
| fashion, finishing with an outstanding record of 23-5-1; and | ||
