         WHEREAS, The boys' soccer team from Diamond Hill-Jarvis High
  School in Fort Worth enjoyed an exceptional 2020-2021 season,
  advancing all the way to the University Interscholastic League 4A
  state championship game; and
         WHEREAS, After excelling in the regular season and claiming
  the district title, the Eagles launched a dominant run in the
  playoffs, dispatching Alvarado, Argyle, Midlothian Heritage, and
  Stephenville High Schools to reach the regional final; there, with
  a thrilling 2-1 double overtime triumph over Mineral Wells, Diamond
  Hill-Jarvis made history as the first team from the Fort Worth
  Independent School District to advance to the state soccer
  tournament; the Eagles then bested Celina High 4-2 in the
  semifinals to stake their spot in the state finale; and
         WHEREAS, The Eagles vied for the state crown against Boerne
  High School on April 17 at Birkelbach Field in Georgetown; while
  their title bid ultimately fell short, the Diamond Hill-Jarvis
  players achieved a new level of success for their school, becoming
  the first Eagles squad in any sport to compete in a UIL state
  championship game; they brought the year to a close with a stellar
  record of 26 wins, 5 losses, and 2 ties; and
         WHEREAS, Eagle players Eduardo Lopez, Edward Zuniga,
  Jonathan Lopez, Ricardo Gonzalez, and Andres Montes were selected
  for the 4A All-Tournament Team; Diamond Hill-Jarvis also benefited
  from the valuable contributions made throughout the season by the
  other members of the roster: Cesar Ortiz, Luis Jaimes, Alberto
  Diosado, Luis Lopez, Jaime Rivera, Edgar Rodriguez, Juan Vega,
  Hector Ramirez, Enock Dusabe, Diego Rodriguez, Cristian Alvarez,
  Jovany Castruita, Pablo Villegas, Eduardo Rodriguez, and Everardo
  Rodriguez; these talented student-athletes were ably guided by head
  coach Kyle Reopelle and assistant coaches Daniel Rodriguez and
  Andrew Sanchez; and
         WHEREAS, Through hard work and an unwavering resolve to give
  their very best, the Diamond Hill-Jarvis Eagles have earned the
  admiration of their fellow students and their many community
  supporters, and they may indeed reflect with pride on their
  memorable accomplishments; now, therefore, be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas
  Legislature hereby congratulate the Diamond Hill-Jarvis High
  School boys' soccer team on its exceptional 2020-2021 season and
  extend to the team's players, coaches, and staff sincere best
  wishes for continued success; and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for the Eagles as an expression of high regard by the Texas
  House of Representatives.
