H.R. No. 1585
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The Levelland High School girls' basketball team
enjoyed an exceptional 2014-2015 season, claiming the district
title and advancing to the regional semifinals of the University
Interscholastic League 4A playoffs; and
WHEREAS, Levelland High won each of its 10 games in league
competition to clinch the District 2-4A crown; the team's thrilling
run through the postseason began with a dominating 84-37 victory
over Perryton High School, and the Loboettes went on to soundly
defeat the squad from Andrews High to secure the area championship;
and
WHEREAS, In the regional quarterfinals, Levelland fell
behind by 18 points in the second quarter to Greenwood High School
before an impressive burst of offense in the second half propelled
the Loboettes to a double-digit lead; these determined players then
secured the game at the free throw line, netting 11 of 14 attempts
in the fourth quarter to capture a 72-62 win; that triumph earned
the Levelland players a trip to the regional semifinals, where they
turned in a valiant effort but saw their season come to an end in a
loss to Wylie High School; and
WHEREAS, Ably guided by head coach Clay Barnett and assistant
coaches Trevor Tucek and Sarah Dormier, the Loboettes benefited
from the vital contributions made throughout the season by each
member of the team: Sujei Cera, Paige Royal, Gabie Ruiz, Courtney
Villanueva, Lindsey Sharp, Paris McCoy, Peyton Himango, Maeci
Scott, Elizabeth Cera, Faith Garza, and Haylee Jackson; and
WHEREAS, The members of the Levelland Loboettes basketball
squad have become a source of tremendous pride to their many
supporters in the local community, and the teamwork and dedication
they have demonstrated on the court will continue to serve them well
in the years to come; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate the Levelland High School girls'
basketball team on its successful 2014-2015 season and extend to
the team's players, coaches, and staff sincere best wishes for the
future; 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.
