H.R. No. 104
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The Memphis High School girls' golf team once again
proved itself the premier 1A team in Texas by placing first at the
2013 University Interscholastic League State Tournament, claiming
the championship for the second year in a row; and
WHEREAS, Matching up against the other top squads at Lions
Golf Course in Austin on May 2 and 3, the Lady Cyclones demonstrated
the poise and skill of true champions; they compiled a two-round
total of 695 and bested their closest competitor by a commanding
48-stroke margin to take home the trophy; the triumph followed the
team's title-winning performance in 2012 and earned the school its
third state crown since 2007; moreover, Memphis has finished in the
top three at the state tournament in six of the past seven years;
and
WHEREAS, The Lady Cyclones were paced by April Barnett, who
shot 78 the first day and 80 on the second to repeat as the 1A
individual champion; she was followed by Cassy Monzingo, who tied
for fifth place with a total score of 170, and Kenley Maddox, who
finished eighth with a 177 tally; strong showings were also made by
team members Sami Lindsey, who scored 190, and Renee Molloy, who
totaled 198; the players all benefited from the guidance and
expertise of coach Andy Correll; and
WHEREAS, Through their talent and determination, the
outstanding athletes on the Memphis High girls' golf team have
furthered their school's notable tradition of excellence in the
sport, and they may take justifiable pride in a job well done; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas
Legislature, 1st Called Session, hereby congratulate the Memphis
High School girls' golf team on winning the 2013 UIL 1A state
championship and extend to each person associated with the team
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.
