AHOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE TIMBERLAND HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS 4 X 100 METER RELAY TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2015 CLASS AA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Timberland High School girls 4 x 100 meter relay team of Berkeley County took top honors at the state competition at Spring Valley High School on Saturday, May 16, 2015; and

Whereas, this marks the first time in school history that either the boys or girls team has won the 4 x 100 meter relay, although the girls team has been knocking hard on the door of statewide dominance for the last several years. The team consisted of Da’Zahnay Houston, Tamarra Robinson, Anastasia Kinlaw, and Destiny Croker; and

Whereas, Coach Elizondo said, “This win was history for us. This was Timberland’s first state championship in track, girls or boys. We’ve been close but never first. I am so happy for these girls and proud of what they have accomplished”; and

Whereas, in a sport that demands mental fortitude, individual excellence, and strategy combined with strength, Coach Elizondo and Coach Miller employed their own athletic ability and education in building a championship team and teaching these student athletes lessons that will prove invaluable through life both on and off the track; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are grateful for the pride and recognition that the Timberland High School girls 4 x 100 meter relay team have brought to their school and their community and look to hear of their continued accomplishments in the days ahead. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and honor the Timberland High School girls 4 x 100 meter relay team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them for winning the 2015 Class AA State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Kerry Daugherty, Coach Joy Elizondo, and Coach A. T. “Pops” Miller.
