A senate RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE 
THE DORCHESTER ACADEMY LADY RAIDERS BASKETBALL TEAM AND COACHES FOR WINNING THE 
2026 SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION CLASS 2A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP 
TITLE AND COMMEND THEM FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON.

Whereas, the Dorchester 
Academy Lady Raiders of St. George won the South Carolina Independent School 
Association Class 2A Girls State Basketball Championship on February 28, 2026, 
when they defeated the Cross Schools Stingrays of Bluffton 39-37 in an overtime 
thriller at the Sumter Civic Center; and

Whereas, as a local 
news report rightly noted, the unforgettable game "was a knock-down drag-out 
that left fans of both schools emotionally drained when it was finally over"; 
and

Whereas, among the 
Raider standout performers were sophomore Emery McClure (No. 10), who was named 
the Region 2A Player of the Year. She and juniors Rylee Weathers (No. 5) and 
Palmer Kizer (No. 2) were selected to the SCISA 2A All-Tournament Team; and

Whereas, joined by 
talented teammates, seniors Rylee Matthews (No. 15) and Lyla Owens (No. 22), 
junior Alyssa Grooms (No. 4), sophomores Emma Branch (No. 24) and Brinley Pope 
(No. 20), and freshman Madison Downey (No. 23), the Lady Raiders finished their 
2025-2026 season with an impressive 26-4 record; and

Whereas, Head Coach 
Callie McClure and Assistant Coach Kara Pendarvis used their own experience and 
passion for basketball to build a championship team; and

Whereas, the Dorchester 
Academy Lady Raiders have made their school, their community, and their State 
proud. The South Carolina Senate takes great pleasure in recognizing this 
outstanding group of talented athletes. Go, Raiders! Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the 
Senate of South Carolina, by this resolution, congratulate the Dorchester 
Academy Lady Raiders basketball team and coaches on their impressive win of the 
2026 Class 2A SCISA State Championship title and commend them for a fine season.

Be it further resolved 
that a copy of this resolution be presented to Dorchester Academy Head of 
School Heather Judy and Lady Raiders Head Coach Callie McClure.
