|
|
WHEREAS, The Texas Southern University cheerleading team |
|
realized a historic milestone by being crowned champions at the |
|
2023 National Cheerleaders Association & National Dance Alliance |
|
College Nationals; and |
|
WHEREAS, Joining other top squads from throughout the country |
|
in Daytona Beach, Florida, from April 5 through 9, the Tigers |
|
delivered an exceptional performance; competing in the Cheer Spirit |
|
Rally Division I category, TSU held first place after the |
|
preliminary round and went on to triumph in the final round with a |
|
total event score of 95.5875, outdistancing its nearest competitor |
|
by a margin of nearly 11 points; and |
|
WHEREAS, The win was all the more significant because the |
|
Tigers are the first team from a Historically Black College and |
|
University to claim a national title at the cheerleading |
|
championships, and their success is sure to inspire countless young |
|
performers across the nation; and |
|
WHEREAS, The TSU cheerleaders benefit from the able |
|
leadership of head coach Shontrese Comeaux, who has made success at |
|
nationals a priority for the team; under her guidance, the Tigers |
|
have devoted themselves to building their skills and refining their |
|
routines, with valuable contributions being made by each member of |
|
the roster; and |
|
WHEREAS, Winning a national championship represents the |
|
culmination of countless hours of training and an unwavering |
|
commitment to excellence, and the Texas Southern cheerleaders are a |
|
source of great pride to the entire university community; now, |
|
therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas |
|
Legislature hereby congratulate the Texas Southern University |
|
cheerleading team on winning the Cheer Spirit Rally Division I |
|
championship at the 2023 NCA & NDA College Nationals and extend to |
|
all those associated with the team sincere best wishes for |
|
continued success; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for the Tigers as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
House of Representatives. |
