R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The football team of C.H. Yoe High School in Cameron
enjoyed an outstanding season in 2010, advancing all the way to the
University Interscholastic League 2A Division 1 state championship
game; and
WHEREAS, The Yoemen proved their abilities from the outset of
the season and went on to win all 10 of their regular season games
and claim the District 12 title; in the playoffs, the team soundly
defeated Newton and then triumphed over East Chambers, Tatum, and
Lago Vista to earn a shot at the state championship; in a
hard-fought championship game, the team battled Daingerfield High
until the final seconds but ultimately fell by a score of 33-27 to
finish as the 2A Division 1 runner-up; and
WHEREAS, Throughout the 2010 campaign Yoe benefited from a
high-powered offense that averaged 47 points per game; Damyon
Kelley rolled up 1,640 yards rushing and scored 25 touchdowns while
quarterback Jack Rhoades threw for more than 3,500 yards and
tallied 48 scoring passes; other standout performances were turned
in by wide receivers Decrick Westbrook, Thomas Rinn, and Zach
Brashear, who combined for 152 receptions and 39 touchdowns; and
WHEREAS, On defense, the Yoemen had 3 shutouts and held 3
other opponents to under 10 points; O'Neil Spells and Ty Morgan led
the team in tackles, and Cheyenne Black and Edgar Luna also played
key roles in stopping opposing ballcarriers; moreover, Jarrett
Beckhusen and Trevion Sims each had 4 interceptions, and Jairo
Campa led the team with 9 sacks while averaging more than 12 tackles
per game; and
WHEREAS, Winning with a true team effort, the Yoemen also
received valuable contributions from the other members of the
roster: Lorenzo Anderson, Tre Anderson, Bonafacio Banda, Juan
Casillas, Keaton Denio, Ricky Dominguez, Justin Erwin, Sebastian
Garcia, Elmo Haynes, Quin Haynes, Deantana Holt, Jason Kopriva,
Jakob Kostroun, Randall Lane, Ed May, David McDonald, Basilio
Montez, Eduardo Moreno, Ines Rangel, Rey Rangel, Dylan Riola, Zach
Riola, Martin Rodriguez, Justin Sapp, Chase Shrader, Josh
Smitherman, Tyler Vrazel, Jessie Westbrook, Quentell Westbrook,
Jake Young, and Justin Youngblood; and
WHEREAS, Head coach Rick Rhoades was ably assisted by
defensive coordinator Billy Anderson, offensive coordinator Jarrod
Smith, and assistant coaches Tommy Brashear, James Henderson, Randy
Sapp, and Phil Tucker; and
WHEREAS, The talented and dedicated student-athletes of the
Yoe High team are a source of great pride to their many supporters
in the local community, and their outstanding performance on the
gridiron is indeed deserving of special recognition; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate the Yoe High School football team
on its successful 2010 season and extend sincere best wishes to the
players, coaches, and staff for continued success; and, be it
further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the team as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
