	R E S O L U T I O N

	WHEREAS, Craig Yenzer is retiring as head football coach and
	athletic coordinator at Midland High School in June 2017, drawing
	to a close a notable career in school athletics that has spanned
	nearly four decades; and
	WHEREAS, After graduating from Oklahoma State University in
	1979, Craig Yenzer gained experience as a teacher and coach at
	schools in Guthrie, Newkirk, and Tuttle, Oklahoma; his involvement
	in Texas high school football began when he was hired at Hereford
	High School; he served as an assistant coach for a decade before
	being promoted to head coach and athletic director, and his tenure
	was highlighted by his team's appearance in the 4A Division 1 state
	title game in 1999; and
	WHEREAS, Mr. Yenzer took over as the Midland High head coach
	in 2002, and during his inaugural season, he piloted the Bulldogs
	not only to their first postseason berth in more than half a century
	but also to an appearance in the state finals; the longest-serving
	and winningest head football coach in school history, he has
	compiled an impressive overall record of 103 wins and 70 losses and
	taken his team to the playoffs in 10 of his 15 seasons with Midland;
	in addition, 72 of his student-athletes have gone on to play
	football at the collegiate level; and
	WHEREAS, Through his vision and leadership, Craig Yenzer has
	helped build a proud tradition of gridiron excellence at Midland
	High School, and he may reflect with pride on his many achievements
	as he embarks on the next exciting chapter of his life; now,
	therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
	Legislature hereby congratulate Craig Yenzer on his retirement as
	head football coach and athletic coordinator at Midland High School
	and extend to him sincere best wishes for continued happiness; and,
	be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
	prepared for Coach Yenzer as an expression of high regard by the
	Texas House of Representatives.

	Craddick
