| athletics; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Mr. Looper first learned the sport in his native | ||
| Pilot Point, where he played for the local high school; he began | ||
| coaching youth football when he was living in The Colony in 1987, | ||
| and while there, his teams won 94 games while losing only 5, | ||
| grabbing 8 league Super Bowl titles along the way; in 1996, he and | ||
| his wife moved to Celina, where he has continued to coach and where | ||

| tie; they have also won 12 league Super Bowl titles, including 10 | ||
| championships in a row; athletes who were taught gridiron | ||
| fundamentals on his teams have gone on to further success, and his | ||
| former players have participated in seven Texas state high school | ||
| championship games; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Working on a voluntary basis, Mr. Looper not only | ||
| teaches winning football to his charges but encourages them to | ||
| excel in all aspects of life; he expects exemplary conduct when the | ||
| team travels, and he leads the boys in prayer before and after every | ||
| game; through the years, he has directly influenced the lives of | ||
| more than 1,000 young men, instilling in them a belief that a strong | ||
| work ethic will lead to positive results; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Through his determined efforts, Coach Looper has | ||
| furthered the proud tradition of football excellence and | ||
| participation that has long been a hallmark of the Lone Star State, | ||
| and he has helped numerous young Texans to develop the character and | ||
| commitment they need to become productive citizens; now, therefore, | ||
| be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas | ||
| Legislature hereby honor Tim Looper for his fine work with the | ||
| Celina Pee Wee Football 6th-grade boys team and extend to him | ||
| sincere best wishes for continued success; and, be it further | ||
| RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
| prepared for Mr. Looper as an expression of high regard by the Texas | ||
