Honoring the Kettering Fairmont High School girls basketball team on winning the 2013 Division I State Championship. |
WHEREAS, The members of the Senate of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to commend the Kettering Fairmont High School girls basketball team as the 2013 Division I State Champion; and |
WHEREAS, A remarkable group of young athletes, the members of the Kettering Fairmont High School girls basketball team have combined talent and competitive spirit with the highest ideals of good sportsmanship to establish themselves as a truly exceptional squad. With admirable dedication, the Lady Firebirds have worked diligently toward attaining ultimate proficiency in basketball, and as a result, they defeated a tough Twinsburg team by the score of 52-48 to win the Division I State Championship and compiled an impressive 29-1 record this season; and |
WHEREAS, The Lady Firebirds' achievements and leadership are a justifiable source of pride and an excellent reflection on the players, their families, their school, their community, and their coach. The success of any athletic endeavor depends largely on the ability of the coach to provide both guidance and inspiration, and in leading his team to victory, Coach Tim Cogan has not only helped each athlete to develop her talents to the fullest but also instilled in each a valuable sense of determination, perseverance, and camaraderie; and |
WHEREAS, With athletic competition playing such an important role in the total education of our young people, we are extremely pleased to pay tribute to these exemplary athletes and their outstanding coach for a job well done. The maturity and experience the team members have gained through participation in sports will greatly aid them in meeting the challenges of the future; therefore be it |
RESOLVED, That we, the members of the Senate of the 130th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, congratulate the Kettering Fairmont High School girls basketball team on its 2013 Division I State title and extend best wishes for ongoing sucess; and be it further |
