WHEREAS, In a thrilling demonstration of skill and
determination, the Round Top-Carmine High School volleyball team
claimed the University Interscholastic League 1A state
championship with a victory in the title match at Strahan Coliseum
in San Marcos on November 20, 2010; and
WHEREAS, The Cubettes advanced to the finals after beating
Normangee High School in the semifinals in a closely contested
battle in which each game was decided by a handful of points; the
tournament final against a talented squad from Wink High School was
even more contentious; after the Cubettes took the first two games
by scores of 25-20 and 27-25, Wink High came back to tie the match
with consecutive 25-20 victories; Round Top-Carmine then won the
tiebreaker 15-7 by scoring the final eight points; the team closed
out the year with a 34-11 record, including victories in its last 18
matches; and
WHEREAS, Brook Conley, Emily Noak, and Megan Hohlt were named
to the All-Tournament Team, and Ms. Hohlt, a freshman, was declared
the most valuable player of the championship game; winning with a
true team effort, the Cubettes also received vital contributions
throughout the year from the other members of the roster: Jessica
Bernshausen, Mandi Rudloff, Tori Brooks, Aby Cies, Bailey
Dallmeyer, Mariah Newsome, Marissa Hibbeler, Amanda Leppard, and
Amber Sternadel; the team managers are Londan Bayer, Adyson Lange,
and Emma Leppard; and
WHEREAS, This was the fourth state title for the Round
Top-Carmine team, which has played in the state final 11 times and
has made 16 appearances in the state tournament; this notable
legacy has been overseen by head coach Tanya Nygrin, who has guided
the Cubettes for 25 years; and
WHEREAS, Winning a state title is the result of countless
hours of hard work and an enduring commitment to excellence, and the
members of the Round Top-Carmine volleyball team may take
justifiable pride in this exceptional achievement; now, therefore,
be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate the Round Top-Carmine High School
volleyball team on winning the 2010-2011 University
Interscholastic League 1A state championship and extend to the
players, coaches, and staff sincere best wishes for continued
success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the team as an expression of high regard by the Texas
House of Representatives.
