“WHEREAS, Known as a driven and spirited squad, the Chaminade Julienne Catholic High School baseball team has developed into an efficient group of athletes whose skill on the diamond is equaled only by their astounding display of teamwork. Through their rigorous preparation in pursuit of the title, the Eagles admirably overpowered a formidable Wapakoneta squad with a score of 3-1 to win this year’s Division II State Championship crown; and
WHEREAS, Under the astute guidance of Coach Mike Barhorst, the Chaminade Julienne Catholic High School baseball team has set a remarkable precedent with its state championship victory. By collaborating to best a rigorous schedule, the members of the squad have prevailed over numerous adversaries and have learned much about dedication, self-discipline, leadership, and perseverance, and their first-place finish reflects their strong commitment to the sport; and
WHEREAS, The unparalleled achievements attributable to the athletic prowess of the Chaminade Julienne Catholic High School baseball team are a justifiable source of pride not only for its members but also for their families, their coaches, and their community. The journey to securing the state title has been a valuable experience that is sure to benefit the players as they follow in the tradition of excellence that has been established by their school’s athletic programs; therefore be it
RESOLVED, That we, the members of the House of Representatives of the 132nd General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, look with optimism to a promising future for the Chaminade Julienne Catholic High School baseball program and salute the members and coach of the 2018 team on its Division II State Championship; and be it further
