Assembly Resolution No. 841

BY: M. of A. Otis

 CONGRATULATING the Rye High School Boys Varsity
 Football Team for winning the school's first New
 York State Class A Championship

 WHEREAS, The fabled tradition of gridiron success at Rye High School
has continued with the Rye Boys Varsity Football Team's victory in the
New York State Class A Championship game, topping Brighton 28-14 at the
JMA Wireless Dome in Syracuse, New York, on Friday, December 5, 2025,
and capping off its greatest season in program history to win the
school's fifth state football title; and

 WHEREAS, This achievement follows the building of one of the most
solid and consistent high school programs in New York State, finishing
with an undefeated record of 8-0 in the regular season, the best record
of 14-0, and the best season in Rye High School's history; steamrolling
opponents week after week, with every victory coming in double digits
and setting school records for total points of 570, an accumulation of
6,431 yards, through an explosive offense and a stingy defense
throughout the season, was claimed by the talented football team
members; and

 WHEREAS, This championship season was made possible with the
Garnets' combination of explosive offense, big-play defense, and
physical strength at the line that powered point production and shut
down opponents all season; and

 WHEREAS, The 2025 Garnets used these strengths, play execution, and
great game strategy to move through the successive rounds of sectional
and state playoff tournament competition against worthy opponents;
sectional victories, beginning with an impressive Section 1 Quarterfinal
victory of 44-19 over Brewster and Section Semifinal win of 36-22
against Eastchester, were followed by a Section 1 Class A Final with a
convincing win of 40-17 over Somers; and

 WHEREAS, Rye's tremendous offense continued to shine in the State
Quarterfinals against Section 9 Champion Minisink Valley with a victory
of 42-14; this was followed by the Class A State Semifinal playoff win
over Cornwall with a score of 35-7 to clinch their spot in the state
championship against Brighton High School which yielded a 28-14 victory;
and

 WHEREAS, The team members and their coaches were loyally and
enthusiastically supported by family, fans, friends, and the
community--all treated to the contact, sights, and sounds of high school
football at the highest level; and

 WHEREAS, For an outstanding season, this Legislative Body
