H.R. No. 2092

R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The boys' lacrosse team from Highland Park High
School in Dallas furthered its tradition of excellence by winning
the 2023 Texas High School Lacrosse League Class AA state
championship; and
WHEREAS, On their journey to the title, the Scots defeated
Houston Memorial High School 13-6 in the regional round of the
playoffs and then recorded a thrilling 11-10 victory over The
Episcopal School of Dallas in the semifinals to punch their ticket
to the championship game; and
WHEREAS, On May 14, top-seeded Highland Park battled The
Woodlands for the state crown; demonstrating tremendous resolve,
the Scots erased an 8-5 deficit with a flurry of second half scoring
to take a 10-9 lead; the players continued their offensive attack
down the stretch, sealing the outcome with consecutive goals in the
waning minutes; triumphing by the final score of 14-10, the Scots
celebrated the program's 12th lacrosse state title, the most of any
team in Texas, and finished the year with an outstanding 20-4
record; and
WHEREAS, Over the course of the season, the Scots received
valuable contributions from each member of the roster; these
talented student-athletes benefited from the able direction of head
coach Mike Pressler, who produced a state title in his inaugural
year at the helm of the team; and
WHEREAS, With their 2023 championship victory, the Highland
Park Scots have burnished their reputation as a lacrosse
powerhouse, and all those associated with the team may reflect with
pride on a job well done; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate the Highland Park High School boys'
lacrosse team on winning the 2023 THSLL Class AA state championship
and extend to the players, coaches, and staff sincere best wishes
for continued success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the Scots as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
