| H.R. No. 477 | ||
|
|
||
| WHEREAS, Bringing the 2018 season to a dramatic and | ||
| triumphant conclusion, the Galena Park North Shore Senior High | ||
| School football team captured the 2018 University Interscholastic | ||
| League 6A Division 1 state championship at AT&T Stadium in | ||
| Arlington on December 22; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Under the guidance of head coach Jon Kay, the | ||
| Mustangs cruised through the regular season with an unblemished | ||
| record on the strength of a high-powered offense and stifling | ||
| defense; their inspired play continued into the postseason as they | ||
| defeated Pasadena Dobie, Dickinson, Katy, Cy-Fair, and Austin Lake | ||
| Travis High Schools, with North Shore winning each game by | ||
| double-digit margins; and | ||
| WHEREAS, In the state title contest, the Mustangs took the | ||
| field against Duncanville High School in a clash of unbeaten | ||
| squads; the back-and-forth battle featured multiple lead changes | ||
| throughout and ultimately culminated in a remarkable final play; | ||
| North Shore trailed by a single point with just three seconds left | ||
| on the clock when quarterback Dematrius Davis launched a Hail Mary | ||
| pass 45 yards into the Duncanville end zone that was miraculously | ||
| grabbed by receiver AJ Carter to earn the Mustangs the state crown; | ||
| and | ||
| WHEREAS, The members of the North Shore Senior High football | ||
| team demonstrated admirable skill and determination in winning the | ||
| state championship and compiling a flawless record against top | ||
| competition, and memories of this exemplary accomplishment will | ||
| resonate with their fellow students and their many supporters in | ||
| the local community for many years to come; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas | ||
| Legislature hereby congratulate the Galena Park North Shore Senior | ||
| High School football team on winning the 2018 UIL 6A Division 1 | ||
| state championship and extend to the team's 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 team as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
| House of Representatives. | ||
