Bill > HR197

This resolution congratulates the Columbus High School football team on winning the 2024 University Interscholastic League (UIL) Class 3A Division 1 state championship, highlighting their remarkable season and achievement. The team, known as the Cardinals, reached the state title game by successfully defeating several opponents in the playoffs and ultimately winning the championship game at AT&T Stadium in Arlington with a 48-14 victory over Malakoff High School. The resolution specifically recognizes key players like senior quarterback Adam Schobel (Offensive MVP), senior linebacker John Schobel (Defensive MVP), and senior running back Grayson Rigdon, as well as head coach Matt Schobel and his staff. The team's victory was particularly poignant, as they were inspired by the memory of a fallen teammate, Aleks Medrano, who passed away in October. The resolution not only congratulates the team on winning their school's first state title but also expresses pride in their skill, determination, and exceptional team effort, and officially requests that a copy of the resolution be prepared for the team as an expression of high regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
