VT LEG #387515 v.1
No. R-240. House concurrent resolution congratulating the Rice Memorial High
School Green Knights Division I field hockey team on winning a second consecutive
championship.
(H.C.R.199)
Offered by Representative Minier of South Burlington
Whereas, the undefeated, top-seeded, and fifth-ranked in New England Green Knights
carried their sticks onto the University of Vermont’s Moulton Winder Field for the
season’s ultimate Division I challenge against the second-seeded Champlain Valley
Union High School (CVU) Redhawks with great confidence and exuberance, and
Whereas, this eager anticipation proved merited as the Rice goalie prevented any first-
half CVU scoring, while her teammates shot one first-quarter goal and three more in the
second, and
Whereas, down but still determined, the Redhawks asserted themselves in the third
and fourth quarters, with one goal in each, but their efforts fell short of the necessary
offensive production, as Rice won the game and the Division I title 4–2, and
Whereas, the Green Knights (17–0) who wrapped up Rice’s second consecutive
perfect season were Molly McGibney, Claire Robblee, Ella Tatro, Violet Clough, Clare
Hamilton, Addy Petrasch, Zoe Martinez, Audrey Morris, Eden Roberts, Mary Moyer,
Maryann Nunn, Ana Walsh, Eliza Fischer, Gillian Grimes, Emeri Rasco, Kate Larkin,
Sophia Chan, Maggie Robinson, Bella Walsh, Ellie Larkin, and Page Johnson, and
Whereas, Head Coach Kelly McClintock and assistant coaches Lucy Stillman and
Bailey Sherwin were pleased with the team’s great 2025 success, now therefore be it
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives:
That the General Assembly congratulates the Rice Memorial High School Green
Knights field hockey team on winning a second consecutive Division I championship,
and be it further
Resolved: That the Secretary of State be directed to send a copy of this resolution to
Rice Memorial High School.
