Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Lake View High School football team of Dillon County took top honors once again at the state competition held this year at the Charlie W. Johnson Stadium on the campus of Benedict College in Columbia on Friday, December 16, 2016; and

Whereas, to the delight of their faithful fans, the Lake View Wild Gators hoisted the state trophy for the tenth time in the school’s history after handily defeating Lamar High School 3114; and

Whereas, the Wild Gators finished a perfect 140 season and tied Woodruff High School for fourthmost state championships in state history; and

Whereas, neither team posted any score in the first quarter, but in the second quarter Lake View’s Tyshawn McDaniel ran 57 yards to give the Wild Gators a 70 lead with almost ten minutes remaining in the first half. He would light up the scoreboard two more times in the title match with a 41yard run and a 53yard punt return; and

Whereas, Xavier Johnson intercepted a tipped pass to give Lake View possession at the Lamar 39yard line. Two plays later, Albert Wheeler broke free behind Lamar’s Silver Fox defense to score on a 38yard pass from Duane Nichols for the Wild Gators’ second score; and

Whereas, TyshawnMcDaniel’s second and third touchdowns spread the Lake View lead to 250 before the end of the third quarter; and

Whereas, the Silver Foxes managed to find the end zone in the fourth quarter, but it was answered four minutes late by Lake View’s Josh Floyd for a 317 score. The Wild Gators allowed one more touchdown from Lamar with thirty seconds of play remaining in the championship game for a 3114 finish; and

Whereas, the Wild Gators rushed and pounded their way as a single man in a sport that demandspower, proficiency, and purpose to capture the team’s tenth championship title; and

Whereas, the team’s seasonal coaching staff maximized their own experience and enthusiasm to hone a championshipcaliber team and teach these athletes lessons that will prove invaluable through life both on and off the gridiron; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives value the respect and distinction that the Lake View football players have brought to their school and their community and look to hear of their continued success 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 commend the Lake View High School varsity football team, coaches, and school officials for anotherimpressive season and congratulate them for winning the 2016 South Carolina Class A State Championship title.
