    A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION congratulating the Lafayette Central Catholic Junior-Senior High School baseball team on winning the Class A State Championship.
    
     Whereas, On June 16, 2012, the Lafayette Central Catholic Knights overcame their opponent to clinch the Class A State Baseball Championship;

    Whereas, This win marks the fourth straight year that the Knights finished their season with a State Championship victory. This feat is exceptionally meaningful for the seniors who have now won the State Championship all four years of their high school baseball careers;

    Whereas, The State Championship serves as the sixth overall state championship for the top-ranked Knights baseball team, placing them second overall in Indiana history;
    
    Whereas, In the championship game, the Knights scored 12 runs from 17 hits, clinching a state record for the number of hits in a Class A game;

    Whereas, The game remained close until a phenomenal fifth inning by the Knights, during which the team rallied to score an Indiana state record of nine runs, ending the inning up 11-2;

---

    Whereas, The Knights scored once more, finishing the game with a final score of 12-2;

    Whereas, Jake Churchill and Wiley Lodde each finished the game with two hits while and Cowan Olinger ended the game with three;

    Whereas, Coach Tim Bordenet is in his 17th year as head coach for the Knights. This season he led the team to an impressive overall record of 31-4; and

    Whereas, Winning a State Championship requires dedication, commitment, and drive from every member of the team. It is remarkable that the Knights have been able to secure victory for four consecutive years. We congratulate them for their hard work and wish them continued success in the future: Therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate     of the General Assembly

of the State of Indiana, the House of Representatives     concurring:

                        
    SECTION 1. That the Indiana General Assembly congratulates the State Champion Lafayette Central Catholic Junior-Senior High School baseball team.
