A house RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE Gray Collegiate Academy varsity cheer squad, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE 2023 SOUTH CAROLINA CLASS Aa STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that the members of the Gray Collegiate cheer squad of Lexington County took home the state title from the state competition held at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia on Saturday, November 19, 2022; and

Whereas, to the delight of their exuberant fans, the Gray Lady War Eagles defeated a fine field of competitors from across the State to garner the program's first state trophy. Gray Collegiate tied Chesnee for first place at 285.5, but the Lady War Eagles won the tiebreaker 490-483; and

Whereas, since June, the Lady War Eagles have practiced five times a week in the second year that Head Coach Griffin Woods has been coaching at Gray Collegiate since moving from California to the Palmetto State twelve years ago. Using her methods, the squad was able to execute a choreography using stunts, transitions, and a high degree of difficulty with championship precision to claim a state title; and

Whereas, in a sport that requires precision, grace, and strength, Coach Woods and her skilled coaching staff maximized their own athletic ability and experience to hone a championship-caliber team and teach these athletes life principles that will endure beyond the mats; and

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives values the pride and recognition that the Gray Collegiate cheerleaders have brought to their school and their community, and the members look forward to following their continued achievements 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 Gray Collegiate Academy varsity cheer squad, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate them for winning the 2023 South Carolina Class AA State Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Brian Newsome and Coach Griffin Woods.
