A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE NEW COVENANT SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2018 SOUTH CAROLINA ASSOCIATION OF CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS CLASS 1A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the New Covenant School of Anderson County took top honors at the state competition against Lighthouse Christian School, their number one rival; and

Whereas, after dropping their first game of the season, the Lady Cavs pulled off nine wins in a row before a disappointing mid-season loss to Hampton Park. The girls, however, responded quickly and secured another nine consecutive wins, including two victories in the SCACS state tournament to finish the season at 18-2 overall and 6-0 in their conference; and

Whereas, in the state championship game, the Lady Cavs took a commanding lead early on as they held Lighthouse at zero in the first quarter. Just before halftime, Captain Molly Landis sank a three-pointer to put the Lady Cavs up 19-4. From there, it was a matter of managing the game to seal the Lady Cavs' first state championship; and

Whereas, it was truly a team win as six different Lady Cavs scored, led by eighth-grader Lily Wickiser with fourteen points. Senior Molly Landis finished her Lady Cav career with an impressive eight points, five rebounds, four assists, and six steals; and

Whereas, in a sport that demands agility and endurance, Coach Joe Canney capitalized on his own athletic ability and training to build a championship team and teach these athletes lessons that will prove invaluable through life both on and off the court; and

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are grateful for the pride and recognition that the New Covenant School Lady Cavs have brought to their school and their community and look forward to hearing of their continued accomplishments 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 honor the New Covenant School girls basketball team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them for winning the 2018 South Carolina Association of Christian Schools Class 1A State championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to headmaster and Coach Joseph Canney.
