WHEREAS, The Memphis High School girls' golf team once again |
|
|
proved itself the premier 1A team in Texas by placing first at the |
|
|
2013 University Interscholastic League State Tournament, claiming |
|
|
the championship for the second year in a row; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Matching up against the other top squads at Lions |
|
|
Golf Course in Austin on May 2 and 3, the Lady Cyclones demonstrated |
|
|
the poise and skill of true champions; they compiled a two-round |
|
|
total of 695 and bested their closest competitor by a commanding |
|
|
48-stroke margin to take home the trophy; the triumph followed the |
|
|
team's title-winning performance in 2012 and earned the school its |
|
|
third state crown since 2007; moreover, Memphis has finished in the |
|
|
top three at the state tournament in six of the past seven years; |
|
|
and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The Lady Cyclones were paced by April Barnett, who |
|
|
shot 78 the first day and 80 on the second to repeat as the 1A |
|
|
individual champion; she was followed by Cassy Monzingo, who tied |
|
|
for fifth place with a total score of 170, and Kenley Maddox, who |
|
|
finished eighth with a 177 tally; strong showings were also made by |
|
|
team members Sami Lindsey, who scored 190, and Renee Molloy, who |
|
|
totaled 198; the players all benefited from the guidance and |
|
|
expertise of coach Andy Correll; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Through their talent and determination, the |
|
|
outstanding athletes on the Memphis High girls' golf team have |
|
|
furthered their school's notable tradition of excellence in the |
|
|
sport, and they may take justifiable pride in a job well done; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas |
|
|
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate the Memphis |
|
|
High School girls' golf team on winning the 2013 UIL 1A state |
|
|
championship and extend to each person associated with the team |
|
|
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. |
