A HOUSE RESOLUTION
TO RECOGNIZE AND SALUTE THE CARDINAL NEWMAN SCHOOL BOYS SOCCER TEAM ON ITS EXCELLENT SEASON AND IMPRESSIVE WIN OF THE 2015 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION (SCISA) CLASS AAA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
Whereas, supremely ready for the challenge, the Cardinal Newman School boys soccer team won the 2015 SCISA Class AAA State Championship, defeating Porter-Gaud 2-1 in the title game, held in Charleston at Porter-Gaud Stadium; and
Whereas, on Saturday, May 9, 2015, the Cardinals bagged their third soccer state title in a row and their fourth in five years, a state of affairs that likely will force school authorities to enlarge the soccer team's trophy case; and
Whereas, although it took regulation, overtime, and penalty kicks, the Cardinals made it clear they were determined to take home the title trophy once again. By the time the Cards had claimed the crown, fans were already making plans to return next year to see their team repeat the feat; and
Whereas, his able leadership and savvy coaching have brought Head Coach Will Eudy his fifth state crown since he took the helm of Cardinal Newman's soccer program. His team did him proud by finishing this season 26-3 and winning its final twenty-two games. Also, four of his thirteen senior players will go on to play soccer at the college level; and
Whereas, such records are not built overnight; they take determination and hard work. With proven consistency in both, Coach Eudy and his assistants have built their soccer program into championship caliber that places them among the soccer powerhouses of this State; and
Whereas, the Cardinals have brought great pride and recognition to their school and community, and the members of the House of Representatives are pleased to have this opportunity to recognize such a wonderful group of young athletes and their outstanding coaches. 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 salute the Cardinal Newman School boys soccer team on its excellent season and impressive win of the 2015 South Carolina Independent School Association (SCISA) Class AAA State Championship title.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to Principal Jacqualine Kasprowski and Head Coach Will Eudy of Cardinal Newman School.
