 WHEREAS, Individual and team championships are highly sought after
in high school sports; this Legislative Body commends rare athletic
achievements and pays special recognition to those who pursue such
excellence and become examples for the youth of this great Empire State;
and

 WHEREAS, Athletic competition helps to enhance both the moral and
physical development of young athletes, preparing them for the future by
instilling in them the importance of teamwork, encouraging a standard of
healthy living, and developing a sense of fair play and competition; and

 WHEREAS, This Legislative Body is justly proud to congratulate the
Seaford High School Varsity Cheerleading Team upon the occasion of
winning the Traditional Division II Small Varsity National Championship
at the UCA National High School Cheerleading Competition at the ESPN
Wide World of Sports Complex at the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida,
from February 7-10, 2025; and

 WHEREAS, To the praise and applause of their excited fans, the
Seaford Vikings defeated their competition of 96 teams from across the
nation to capture the coveted national championship--the first of its
kind in the school's history and in Nassau County's history; and

 WHEREAS, Proudly donning the school's colors of white and green,
family, friends, and the community at large loyally and enthusiastically
supported the Vikings throughout their journey as they ended their
season with an impressive perfect season record; and

 WHEREAS, During their historic 2024-2025 season, the Seaford High
School Varsity Cheerleading Team went undefeated in the fall Game Day
season; won the Nassau County Game Day Championship; won the New York
State Game Day Championship; went undefeated for the winter season at
all local New York State competitions; were the Nassau County Champions;
placed second in the New York State Championship; and successfully won
four UCA regional competitions, two for Game Day and two for
Traditional, which qualified them for UCA Nationals in both the Game Day
and Traditional divisions; and

 WHEREAS, In a sport such as cheerleading, which demands athletic
prowess, speed, and agility, Head Coach Lisa Ferrari and her skilled
coaching staff worked hard to hone the skills of this championship team,
teaching these outstanding athletes lessons which will prove invaluable
both on and off the mat; and

 WHEREAS, Coach Lisa Ferrari and all the outstanding athletes on the
Seaford High School Varsity Cheerleading Team have clearly utilized
dedication, determination, and teamwork in providing a lasting

contribution to the spirit of excellence which is a tradition of their
