WHEREAS, The McGregor High School freshman football team
captured the district championship with a victory over the squad
from Glen Rose High School at Bulldog Stadium on November 6, 2014;
and
WHEREAS, In an exciting contest, the Bulldogs rallied from an
early deficit to tie the score at 8-8 going into the half; in the
third quarter, the McGregor defense forced a safety to take the
lead, and in the fourth, a six-yard touchdown run by Tayvon Thompson
followed by a two-point conversion put the Bulldogs firmly in
control; the team then held off a late Glen Rose surge to win by a
score of 18-16; and
WHEREAS, Under the guidance of head coach Chris Kuhl,
McGregor finished the season with a record of eight wins to just two
defeats, receiving valuable contributions from each member of the
roster along the way; and
WHEREAS, The hard work and determination of these talented
student-athletes have been justly rewarded with a district crown,
and they may indeed reflect with pride on their notable
accomplishment; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate the McGregor High School freshman
football team on winning the 2014 district championship and extend
to the team's 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.
