VT LEG #383700 v.1
No. R-157. House concurrent resolution congratulating West Rutland High School
girls’ basketball standout Peyton Guay and extending to her best wishes for every

(H.C.R.133)
Offered by Representatives Burditt of West Rutland and Bosch of Clarendon
Offered by Senators Collamore, Weeks, and Williams
Whereas, the prolific basketball career of Peyton Guay has always been focused on
her team, the West Rutland High School Golden Horde, and
Whereas, despite her modesty and team focus, were it not for the presence of this
outstanding player, the Golden Horde would never have compiled its amazing four-year
consecutive string of Division IV crowns (2022–2025), and
Whereas, there is no doubt Peyton Guay has written a new page of achievements in
the history of Vermont girls’ high school basketball that will not easily be surpassed, and
Whereas, from the day Peyton Guay first walked onto the hardwood court as a ninth
grader, her coaches and teammates knew she possessed an extraordinary talent for
playing the game, as she demonstrated a keen ability to score from the field and at the
foul line, and
Whereas, her unique leadership, combining exemplary talent with a genuine desire to
share the ball with her teammates, contributed to West Rutland’s astounding 86–8 win-
loss record over the past four seasons, and
Whereas, Peyton Guay’s personal statistics, averaging 21.3 points per game and
scoring 2,279 points, the most ever of any Vermont girls’ high school basketball player,
are outstanding, and her contribution of assists is equally impressive, and
Whereas, the conclusion of her time as a Golden Horde player hardly ends her
basketball playing days, as Peyton Guay eagerly anticipates embarking on an exciting
new path as a college basketball player in Florida, now therefore be it
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives:
That the General Assembly congratulates West Rutland High School girls’ basketball
standout Peyton Guay and extends to her best wishes for every future success, and be it
further
Resolved: That the Secretary of State be directed to send a copy of this resolution to
Peyton Guay.
