A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND COMMEND THE DILLON CHRISTIAN SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAM FOR ITS OUTSTANDING SEASON AND FOR CAPTURING THE 2008 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE, AND TO HONOR THE TEAM'S EXCEPTIONAL PLAYERS, COACHES, AND STAFF.

Whereas, fully ready for the challenge, the Dillon Christian School football team crowned an excellent 13-1 season by capturing the 2008 South Carolina Independent School Association Class A State Championship title, defeating Bible Baptist 48-14 on Friday, November 21, 2008; and

Whereas, excitement over this title win was especially intense because it made school history, marking Dillon's first state championship for the school's six-year-old football program and a real turnaround for the team; and

Whereas, the championship game demonstrated the Warriors' top-drawer strength, agility, and skill, finely tuned team effort, and good sportsmanship; and

Whereas, using these talents and attributes, the team, under the capable leadership of Coach Kelly Williamson and his assistants, showed fans and foes alike that the Warriors' championship victory was no accident; and

Whereas, adding luster to an already scintillating season, a group of Dillon Christian School seniors played in the SCISA North-South All-Star game on December 6, 2008 and they helped the North team rack up a 9-7 win. In addition, sophomore tailback Ray Thomas emerged as a top tailback in the SCISA ranks, in the title game running for a school record of 341 yards, rushing on 27 carries, and scoring four touchdowns; and

Whereas, the House of Representatives takes great pleasure in recognizing the young men of the Dillon Christian School football team for leading with excellence both in the classroom and on the football field and expects to hear of continued great achievements in the years 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 Dillon Christian School football team for its outstanding season and for capturing the 2008 South Carolina Independent School Association Class A State Championship title, and honor the team's exceptional players, coaches, and staff.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Headmaster John Davis and Coach Kelly Williamson of Dillon Christian School.
