||
WHEREAS, The baseball team from Carlisle High School in Price | ||
reached the pinnacle of success by winning the 2013 University | ||
Interscholastic League 1A state championship on June 6 at Dell | ||
Diamond in Round Rock; and | ||
WHEREAS, Playing inspired baseball from start to finish in | ||
2013, the Indians lost just one game in the regular season on their | ||
way to claiming the District 20-1A title; in the playoffs, the team | ||
reeled off victories over McLeod, Bowie, West Sabine, and Douglass | ||
High Schools to earn their place in the state tournament, and a win | ||
in the semifinals against Weimar allowed Carlisle to advance to the | ||
title contest against Stamford; and | ||
WHEREAS, Taking the mound with the state crown on the line, | ||
Zach Brightwell allowed only three hits and struck out seven in | ||
delivering a complete game to garner the most valuable player | ||
honor; Carlisle broke the game open with four runs in the fifth | ||
inning and went on to win 6-1, as Caleb Colley, Kolton Heim, Jaylan | ||
Holland, and Ty Baker each had multiple hits during the game; and | ||
WHEREAS, Excelling through a true team effort, the Indians | ||
also benefited from the valuable contributions made throughout the | ||
season by the other members of the roster: Kyle Byrd, Clay Allphin, | ||
Ben Goss, Shadow Sanders, Dylan Sanders, Cooper Grigsby, Michael | ||
Savala, Gunner Baker, Collin Gray, Justin McMurtry, and Dalton | ||
Sanders; the players were guided by head coach Wesley Colley and | ||
assistant coaches Rocky Baker and Cal Goss; and | ||
WHEREAS, In capturing the first state baseball championship | ||
in school history, the talented student-athletes of the Carlisle | ||
Indians baseball team demonstrated remarkable determination and an | ||
unwavering commitment to excellence, and they are a source of | ||
tremendous pride to their school and to their many supporters in the | ||
local community; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas | ||
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate the Carlisle | ||
High School baseball team on winning the 2013 UIL 1A 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. | ||
Clardy | ||
