WHEREAS, The Texas House of Representatives is pleased to |
|
|
congratulate the Alamo Heights High School football team on winning |
|
|
the University Interscholastic League Class 4A Division I state |

championship title; and |

WHEREAS, The Alamo Heights Mules won their first state title |

by defeating the Copperas Cove High School Bulldawgs by a score of |
|
|
40-28 at a game in which the Mules repeatedly held off the multiple |
|
|
rallies of a determined Copperas Cove team; given the comeback |

history of the Bulldawgs, the game remained in doubt until the Mules |
|
|
scored on a quarterback sneak with 31 seconds left to play; and |
|
|

|
|
perseverance throughout the school year, ending the season with a |
