and

 WHEREAS, Many will only dream of competing in the Olympics; these
talented athletes from the great State of New York, through their hard
work and tenacious spirit, have made that vision a reality, and have
proudly represented their country in competition among the world's
finest athletes, an honor which will solidify their incredible legacy as
