A house RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE WILSON HALL BOYS CROSS 
COUNTRY TEAM AND THEIR COACHES ON THEIR SENSATIONAL PerforMANCE AT THE SOUTH 
CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION 4A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP AND TO 
CONGRATULATE THEM ON THEIR SECOND CONSECUTIVE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, 
on Saturday, November first, at Heathwood Hall Episcopal School, the Wilson 
Hall boys cross country team took home the state title, marking the team's 
second consecutive state championship win. The Barons' first place title was 
won with a remarkable 31-point lead over the second-place team, John Paul II 
Catholic School, beating them by just one point the previous year; and 

Whereas, 
the Wilson Hall Barons have been focused all season on defending their state 
title and pushing themselves to do even better this year. The Wilson Hall boys 
broke the school record for the fastest team finish, as well as breaking the 
SCISA state meet record and the SCISA all-time meet record with a combined time 
of one hour, twenty minutes, and fourteen point forty-eight seconds. The team 
delivered many impressive performances, highlighted by Trip Hunt, who shattered 
the school record by more than 20 seconds with a time of 15:26.20. Hunt 
captured the individual state title, finishing eight seconds ahead of last 
year's champion and earning Wilson Hall its first individual state title in 
three years. All seven of the team's runners placed within the top eighteen, 
each finishing under seventeen minutes, leading the team to an overall victory 
and capping off a historic day for the program; and 

Whereas, 
in a sport that demands endurance as well as mental and physical strength, Head 
Coach Reid Schwartz and his dedicated coaching staff ̶ Dustin Smith, Kristine 
Smith, Catherine Kelley Schwartz, Grier Schwartz, and Blane Russell ̶ combined 
their knowledge, passion, and commitment to excellence to guide their athletes 
to remarkable success. The lessons and life principles that they have taught 
these athletes will continue to shape them into well-rounded individuals on and 
off the course for the rest of their running careers, and all throughout their 
lives; and

Whereas, 
the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives value the pride and 
recognition that the Wilson Hall boys cross country team have brought to their 
school and their community and look forward to following their continued 
achievements in the days ahead. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the 
South Carolina House of Representatives, 
by this resolution, recognize and honor the Wilson Hall boys cross country team 
and their coaches on their sensational performance at the South Carolina 
Independent School Association 4A State Championship and to congratulate them 
on their second consecutive State Championship title.

Be it further resolved 
that a copy of this resolution be presented to Head of School Brent Kaneft and 
Head Coach Reid Schwartz of Wilson Hall School.
