competitive field of teams with a score of 130, besting their nearest opponent, 
Wilson Hall, by 14 points, and winning their second consecutive state 
championship title; and

Whereas, at the state

Thomas, Nicholas Iszard, Landon Heuer, and Davis Hagstette made the podium and earned 
All-State Honors; and 

Whereas, in a sport 
that requires endurance, speed, and agility, Head Coach Tony Brown and his 
talented coaching staff utilized their own experience and passion for the sport 
to craft a championship-caliber team. The lessons that they have taught these 
young athletes will continue to prove invaluable beyond the track and field; 
and

Whereas, the members of 
the South Carolina House of Representatives value the pride and recognition 
that the Heathwood Hall Episcopal School boys track and field team have brought 
to their school and community, and the members look forward to following their 
future achievements in the days to come. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the 
South Carolina House of Representatives, 
by this resolution, honor and recognize the Heathwood Hall Episcopal School 
boys track and field team, coaches, and school officials on an outstanding 
season and congratulate them on winning the 2026 South Carolina Independent 
School Association Division I Championship title.
