| H.R. No. 810 | ||
|
|
||
| WHEREAS, The boys' basketball team from Bowie High School in | ||
| El Paso closed out the 2010-2011 regular season with a 66-59 victory | ||
| over Chapin High School on February 15, 2011, and this crucial win | ||
| ultimately led to the team being crowned the District 1-4A | ||
| champion; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Omar Acosta overcame an injured ankle to lead the | ||
| Bears with 26 points, including two late free throws to seal the | ||
| game, and Jesse Lopez added 15 points; the triumph gave Bowie a | ||
| record of 12 wins and 2 losses in district play, which equaled that | ||
| of Andress High, and a coin toss between the two teams later earned | ||
| Bowie the 1-4A title; and | ||
| WHEREAS, After securing the district championship, the Bears | ||
| continued their fine play in the University Interscholastic League | ||
| 4A state playoffs; they defeated Ysleta High School in their | ||
| bi-district matchup before falling to The Colony in a hard-fought | ||
| game on February 25 to finish the season with a 22-8 record; and | ||
| WHEREAS, Winning a district championship represents the | ||
| culmination of countless hours of hard work and an enduring | ||
| commitment to excellence, and these talented student-athletes and | ||
| coach Daniel Celaya may take justifiable pride in this | ||
| accomplishment; now, therefore, be it | ||
| RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas | ||
| Legislature hereby congratulate the Bowie High School Bears | ||
| basketball team on winning the District 1-4A 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. | ||
