Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Christ Church Episcopal School boys swim team of Greenville County made the top splash at the state competition held at the Carolina Natatorium in Columbia on Saturday,October 11, 2014; and
Whereas, a Class A school with fewer than ten swimmers on the swim crew,Christ Church thrilled fans as the Cavaliers took theirfirst state swim title with a final tally of 365 points, more than thirty points ahead of the second place Academic Magnet High School from North Charleston, while competing among Class AAA schools; and
Whereas, although several Cavalier teams regale the trophy wall each year through state victories, the school had never garnered a state trophy in swimming; and
Whereas, Christ Church not only took first place among much larger schools, but the Cavaliers had an extraordinary season, exhibiting a true passion for their sport; and
Whereas, Bryan Barker won the 100yard butterfly for Christ Church and,along with teammates Walker Leftwich, Dylan Muse, and Rak Hovart,won the 200 medley relay, as well asthe 400 freestyle relay with Rak Hovart, Jonathan Morse, and Jackson Kabas; and
Whereas, the victory for the Cavalier boys team was made all the sweeter when Cavalier Sydney Baker of Christ Church took first place in the 200 freestyleand the 100 breaststroke for the girls team, and teammate Maddie Baker won the 200 individual medley; and
Whereas, in a sport that demandseconomy of speed and strength, Head Coach Park Owings and Assistant Coach Matt Jacobssen used their own athletic ability and training to molda championship team and teach these athletes lessons that will prove invaluable through life both in and out of the lane; and
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are gratefulfor the pride and recognition that theChrist Church swimmers have brought to their school and their community and expect to hear of their future success. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
