WHEREAS, The Nocona High School girls' basketball team
enjoyed an outstanding 2022-2023 season, advancing all the way to
the Region II championship game of the University Interscholastic
League 2A playoffs; and
WHEREAS, Starting the year in impressive fashion, the Lady
Indians went undefeated in regular-season play and clinched the
district championship; Nocona then rode a wave of momentum into the

High Schools to claim the team's first regional tournament
appearance since 1995; and
WHEREAS, Nocona opened regional action with a 34-29
semifinals decision over Muenster High School to secure a coveted
berth in the regional final; in that contest, the Lady Indians
turned in a valiant effort against Lipan High School, but they saw
their season come to an end, closing out the year with an
exceptional final record of 37 wins and just one loss; and
WHEREAS, Excelling with a true team effort, the Lady Indians
received valuable contributions from each member of the roster over
the course of the 2022-2023 campaign; these determined
student-athletes were ably guided by head coach Kyle Spitzer and
his staff; and
WHEREAS, The talented and hardworking members of the Nocona
Lady Indians basketball team proudly represented their school with
their thrilling playoff run, and they are a source of great pride
for their fellow students and their many supporters in the
community; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate the Nocona High School girls'
basketball team on advancing to the Region II championship game of
the 2023 UIL 2A playoffs 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
