	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, During the 2016-2017 season, the boys' soccer team
	of Wisdom High School in Houston continued its winning tradition by
	claiming a third consecutive district championship and advancing to
	the University Interscholastic League 5A state playoffs; and
	WHEREAS, The Generals finished the regular season with a
	perfect record in league play to capture the District 24-5A title
	for the third year in a row and earn a berth in the playoffs; and
	WHEREAS, In the postseason opener, the Generals took the
	field against their bi-district opponent, Elkins High School; the
	Wisdom High players overcame an early deficit with a clutch penalty
	kick just minutes before halftime and eventually secured a 4-1 win
	to move on to the area round of the playoffs; in that hard-fought
	game, the team made a strong showing but ultimately fell in overtime
	to Kingwood Park High, bringing a memorable year to a close; and
	WHEREAS, Excelling with a true team effort, the Generals
	received valuable contributions throughout the year from each
	member of the roster, and these talented student-athletes were
	inspired to perform at the top of their game by head coach Fidel
	Andrade and his staff; and
	WHEREAS, Playing with great skill and determination, the
	Wisdom Generals have earned the admiration of their fellow students
	and community supporters, and they may indeed reflect with great
	pride on their many accomplishments; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
	Legislature hereby congratulate the Wisdom High School boys' soccer
	team on its success during the 2016-2017 season and extend to all
	those associated with the team sincere best wishes for the future;
	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.
