WHEREAS, Jake Green of The Colony High School proved himself |
|
|
one of the top wrestlers in Texas by winning the 5A state title in |
|
|
the 170-pound weight division at the University Interscholastic |
|
|
League state tournament, held in Garland on February 20 and 21, |
|
|
2015; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, In an impressive demonstration of athletic ability, |
|
|
Mr. Green triumphed over each of his four opponents at the meet and |
|
|
claimed the crown with a decisive 4-0 victory against Christian |
|
|
McBroom of Randall High School; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Mr. Green's gold-medal performance was all the more |
|
|
special because it garnered his school its first wrestling state |
|
|
title since 1993, and The Colony High is honoring his achievement by |
|
|
retiring his uniform; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, By earning the mantle of state champion, Jake Green |
|
|
has become a source of great pride to his school and community, and |
|
|
he may take justifiable pride in this notable accomplishment; now, |
|
|
therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Jake Green on winning the UIL 5A |
|
|
state wrestling championship in the 170-pound weight division and |
|
|
extend to him sincere best wishes for continued success; and, be it |
|
|
further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for Mr. Green as an expression of high regard by the Texas |
|
|
House of Representatives. |
