|
||
WHEREAS, The boys' basketball team from Manor High School | ||
enjoyed an outstanding 2018-2019 season, advancing all the way to | ||
the semifinals of the University Interscholastic League 5A state | ||
playoffs; and | ||
WHEREAS, The road to Manor's debut appearance in the state | ||
tournament began with an impressive campaign through the regular | ||
season in which the team claimed the district title; continuing | ||
their fine play in the postseason, the Mustangs earned decisive | ||
victories over Pflugerville, Rudder, Cedar Park, Fort Bend | ||
Hightower, and Pflugerville Connally High Schools to reach the | ||
state semifinals; and | ||
WHEREAS, Facing off against Mansfield Timberview on March 7 | ||
at the Alamodome in San Antonio, the Mustangs put forth an | ||
exceptional effort in the semifinal contest, but ultimately fell | ||
short to conclude their season with an overall record of 28 wins and | ||
11 losses; and | ||
WHEREAS, Excelling with a true team effort, the squad | ||
received valuable contributions throughout the year from each | ||
member of the roster, with a number of players garnering | ||
all-district recognition; Jamal Shead was named the 2019 District | ||
18-5A Most Valuable Player, and First Team All-District honorees | ||
included Augustine Arroyo, Quentin Middleton, and Reggie Brown; the | ||
Second Team All-District roster featured Anthony Joiner and Davion | ||
Pearson; moreover, Tre Sherrell, Devin Lemear, and Blake Fisher | ||
were recognized as honorable mention selections; the team further | ||
benefited from the dedicated efforts of Breyonn Wooley, Ay'keen | ||
Richardson, Terrill Penson, Tyrone Haywood, Marvin Bibbs, Terry | ||
Alexander, and Xavyian Wolf-Martinez; and | ||
WHEREAS, These exceptional athletes were inspired to play at | ||
the top of their game by head coach Anthony Swain, who was named | ||
District 18-5A Coach of the Year, and they were also ably guided by | ||
assistant coaches Nathan Clark, Gabriel Hamner, Herschel Johnson, | ||
and Taylor Wallace; and | ||
WHEREAS, With their hard work, skill, and unwavering | ||
commitment to excellence, the Manor Mustangs earned a place among | ||
the top 5A basketball teams in the Lone Star State, and they are a | ||
source of tremendous pride to their classmates and their many | ||
supporters in the local community; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas | ||
Legislature hereby congratulate the Manor High School boys' | ||
basketball team on a successful 2018-2019 season and extend to the | ||
team's players, coaches, and staff sincere best wishes for the | ||
future; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for the Mustangs as an expression of high regard by the | ||
Texas House of Representatives. |
