A HOUSE RESOLUTION
TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE PINEWOOD PREPARATORY SCHOOL GOLF TEAM FOR WINNING THE 2011 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION (SCISA) CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to learn that the Pinewood Preparatory School Panthers captured their fourth consecutive state golf championship on Tuesday, April 26, 2011, their fifth time taking top honors in the past six years; and
Whereas, in a sport that requires strategy, skill, and precision, the Pinewood Prep team topped Porter-Gaud 591-602 in total scores in the SCISA Class AAA State Golf Tournament, held at Coastal Carolina's Quail Creek Golf Course; and
Whereas, during the two-day event, Pinewood took a seven-shot lead at the end of Monday's play with a team total of 290, but on Tuesday the Panthers shot a total of 301 on a day that saw scores go up because of wind and rain. Sophomore Richard Hubbard shot even-par 72 both days to finish in third place overall with a score of 144. Pinewood senior and team captain Doug Chickarella shot 76 on the second day to finish at 146, taking home the memory of the best round of his four-year career. Sophomore Katelyn Dambaugh finished at 149, and Ryan Cavanaugh rounded out Pinewood's scorers with a 152; and
Whereas, Coach Greg Baechtle, who molded his players into championship golfers and taught them lessons they will remember for a lifetime, was not surprised to see the Panthers nab the trophy because they had the grit and determination necessary to get the job done; and
Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives takes great pleasure in commending the Pinewood Preparatory School Panthers for their successful season and state championship, and the members expect to hear of further accomplishments by these fine athletes in the years to come. 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 Pinewood Preparatory School golf team for winning the 2011 South Carolina Independent School Association (SCISA) Class AAA State Championship title.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Headmaster Glyn Cowlishaw and Coach Greg Baechtle of Pinewood Preparatory School.
