WHEREAS, the Eagles have been superbly coached and inspired by Coach Joshua Cavanaugh, who has broadened the team's knowledge of the game and refined their skills in execution; and
WHEREAS, in their tireless dedication, the Eagles have developed a winning, cooperative spirit and a high degree of sportsmanship, and their activities and attitudes reflect great credit upon the individual players and Coach Cavanaugh; and
