R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The Woodlands High School won the University
Interscholastic League 5A Lone Star Cup for the 2009-2010 academic
year, earning the school three consecutive victories in its
classification; and
WHEREAS, Contenders for the Lone Star Cup compete in a
variety of arenas, including athletics, academics, marching band,
and drama, and winning schools receive a trophy and a $1,000
scholarship presented by the UIL; and
WHEREAS, Beating out their nearest rival, Austin Westlake, by
six points, the Highlanders captured the cup with a total score of
100 for the year; the school's dominance was fueled by the strength
of its athletic programs, in particular its boys' cross country and
swimming and diving and girls' soccer teams, which all won state
championships; in addition, The Woodlands also boasted
high-performing boys' basketball, football, and soccer teams and
impressive achievements in girls' golf and softball; rounding out
these sports triumphs, the school's academic team prevailed at the
district championships; and
WHEREAS, By claiming its fourth Lone Star Cup in five years,
The Woodlands High School has further added to its enviable record
of excellence, and all those associated with the school can take
justifiable pride in their outstanding accomplishment; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate The Woodlands High School on
winning the 2009-2010 UIL 5A Lone Star Cup and extend to the
school's students, educators, and staff best wishes for continued
success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the school as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
