A house RESOLUTION

TO CELEBRATE THE 
CHESNEE HIGH SCHOOL FEMALE STRENGTH TEAM ON CAPTURING THE 2025 SOUTH CAROLINA 
CLASS AA GIRLS STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE AND TO SALUTE THE TEAM'S MEMBERS AND 
COACHES FOR SUCH A FINE END TO AN EXCEPTIONAL SEASON.

Whereas, on November 8, 
2025, the Chesnee High School female strength team was crowned the Class AA 
Girls State Champion by the South Carolina High School Strength Coaches 
Association; and

Whereas, coming out on 
top at the state championship competition is always exhilarating for both team 
members and their loyal fans, but this 2025 Chesnee win was particularly epic: 
It was a back-to-back state victory for the Chesnee Eagles and only the second AA 
Strength Team Championship ever offered by the South Carolina High School 
Strength Coaches Association at a state female strength meet; and

Whereas, held at 
Lexington High School, the 2025 meet featured more than three hundred forty 
female athletes from thirty-two schools. The Chesnee female team shared the 
stage with Batesburg-Leesville as AA state co-champions; and

Whereas, clearly, the 
Chesnee High School female strength team has flourished under the leadership 
and guidance of Head Coach David Jones and Assistant Coaches Zach Baldinelli, 
Katie Jolley, Austin Bradley, and Aubrey Aparis; and

Whereas, with great 
pride, the South Carolina House applauds this latest proof that the Chesnee female 
strength team is a powerhouse to be reckoned with, and the members are pleased 
to lift their united voices in praise of these outstanding athletes. Go, 
Eagles! Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the 
South Carolina House of Representatives, 
by this resolution, celebrate the Chesnee High School female strength team on 
capturing the 2025 South Carolina Class AA Girls State Championship title and 
salute the team's members and coaches for such a fine end to an exceptional 
season.

Be it further resolved 
that a copy of this resolution be presented to Principal Steven Fusaro Jr. and 
Head Coach David Jones of Chesnee High School.
