A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND COMMEND THE CALHOUN COUNTY “SAINTS” BOYS BASKETBALL TEAM ON AN IMPRESSIVE WIN OF THE 2009 CLASS A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE AND TO HONOR THE PLAYERS, COACHES, AND STAFF ON AN OUTSTANDING SEASON.

Whereas, the Calhoun County High School boys basketball team left no doubt who was the best team in its class by capturing the 2009 Class A State Championship title defeating Great Falls 65-40 at the Colonial Life Arena in Columbia on Saturday, March 7, 2009; and

Whereas, this title win made school history marking the fourth consecutive state title, which is the first time since 1926 that a boys team has captured four state championships in a row; and

Whereas, under the guidance of coach, Zam Frederick this team has won eight titles since 1996, the most ever for a South Carolina high school league coach; and

Whereas, headlined by Alshon Jeffery and Deandrea Guinyard who together scored 34 points in the title game, these players anchored a team that demonstrated, tenacity, aggressive defense, and court skills which produced the kind of results hard work and determination allow a team to achieve; and

Whereas, Coach Zam Frederick, himself a star at the University of South Carolina in the 1980’s who led the NCAA in scoring during the 1980-81 season, and his staff should be congratulated on a well deserved championship win; and

Whereas the members of the House of Representatives take great satisfaction and pleasure in recognizing the young men of the Calhoun County High School boys basketball team in setting an example in the classroom and on the hardwood. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the House of Representatives, by this resolution, recognize and commend the Calhoun County boys basketball team on an impressive run of the 2009 Class A State championship title, and to honor the players, coaches, and staff on an outstanding season.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Cynthia Johnson and Coach Zam Frederick of Calhoun County High School.
