By: Marquez | 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. |
