This recognition is a way to encourage and motivate students to engage in physical activities and strive for success in their pursuits.

Summary

House Resolution 117, sponsored by Representative Parkinson, honors Ladarian Pittman for his significant contributions to the Elmore Park Middle School Eagles boys' basketball team, which recently achieved their third consecutive state championship title in the TMSAA Class AAA category.
