A concurrent RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE THE T.L. HANNA GIRLS GOLF TEAM AND 
COACHES ON THEIR IMPRESSIVE WIN OF THE 2025-2026 SOUTH CAROLINA HIGH SCHOOL 
LEAGUE AAAAA DIVISION II STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE AND APPLAUD THEM ON A 
FANTASTIC SEASON.

Whereas, the members of 
the South Carolina General Assembly are pleased to learn that the T.L. Hanna 
girls golf team won their second consecutive Class AAAAA Division II girls golf 
State Championship on October 28, 2025, on the Hackler Course at Coastal 
Carolina University; and

Whereas, despite wind 
and rain, the Yellow Jackets' composure allowed them to prevail, defending 
their title and finishing with an overall score of 642, besting both Conway, 
who finished second with a score of 654, and West Florence, who finished third 
with a score of 660; and

Whereas, the Lady 
Yellow Jackets showed grit and determination in the face of an uncertain 
tournament. Between worsening weather conditions and stiff competition, the 
team had to give it their all to defend their championship title. After finding 
themselves behind Chapin in the first round, the weather stilled, giving them 
the chance they needed in the second round to turn their game around. Some 
outstanding performances early in the second round from the leading golfers on 
the team helped everyone to play like champions. Coach Gabby Kitts knew that as 
long as they played a smart, safe game it would lead to their eventual win; and

Whereas, the T.L. Hanna 
Lady Yellow Jackets had many impressive individual performances. Senior Marisa 
Scaletta had a game-changing performance for the team. After a slow start and 
adjustments to the weather conditions, Scaletta delivered an eagle 3 on the 
par-5 sixth hole, replenishing the team's confidence. She helped secure the win 
and took home the individual champion title with a 1-under-par 71. Yellow 
Jackets junior Serra Erlenkeuser and sophomore Sierra Schulze joined the top 
five, giving T.L. Hanna three players among the state's elite; and

Whereas, in a sport 
that demands precision and focus as well as physical and mental strength, Head Coach 
Gabby Kitts and her staff utilized their experience and passion for the sport 
to mold a championship-caliber team. The lessons they have instilled in their 
golfers will have great life-long impact, shaping them into well-rounded 
individuals on and off the course; and

Whereas, the members of 
the South Carolina General Assembly value the pride and recognition that the 
T.L. Hanna girls golf team has brought to their school and community and look 
forward to following their continued achievements in the days to come. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House 
of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the 
South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, congratulate the T.L. 
Hanna girls golf team and coaches on their impressive win of the 2025-2026 
South Carolina High School League AAAAA Division II State Championship title 
and applaud them on a fantastic season.

Be it further resolved that 
a copy of this resolution be presented to T.L. Hanna Principal Walter Mayfield 
and Head Coach Gabby Kitts.
