R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Gina Dylla of Sandra Day O'Connor High School in
Helotes has been named the 2009 Girls Soccer Coach of the Year by
the San Antonio Express-News; and
WHEREAS, In four years as a head coach, Coach Dylla has
compiled an impressive record of 87 wins, 18 losses, and 4 draws;
under her inspired leadership, the O'Connor Panthers claimed their
first District 28-5A championship in six years and advanced to the
third round of the playoffs for only the fourth time in school
history; and
WHEREAS, After gaining experience at Southwest and Burbank
High Schools, Coach Dylla made immediate and sweeping changes to
the Panthers team when she became the O'Connor coach at the
beginning of the 2008-2009 season, moving players to different
positions from those they had previously played; at the end of the
season, her rearranged squad held a record of 17 wins and 4 draws
with only 3 losses, including a 20-game streak without a loss; and
WHEREAS, Exceptional coaches inspire athletes to perform at
the peak of their abilities, and Gina Dylla's commitment to
excellence indeed makes her a most deserving recipient of this
award; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate Gina Dylla on being named 2009
Girls Soccer Coach of the Year by the San Antonio Express-News and
extend to her sincere best wishes for continued success; and, be it
further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Coach Dylla as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
