WHEREAS, the 1998 - 1999 Princess Anne High School Cavaliers enjoyed unprecedented success, capturing the school’s first state basketball championship; and

WHEREAS, the Cavaliers from Virginia Beach showed their first flashes of brilliance by defeating the Frank W. Cox High School Falcons for the first time early in the season; and

WHEREAS, in a difficult Eastern Regional tournament, the Princess Ann Cavaliers defeated strong teams from Norview, Hampton, and Maury High Schools to win their first-ever regional championship; and

WHEREAS, the hard work, determination, and discipline of the Cavalier players, combined with the expertise of Beach District Coach-of-the-Year Gary Cason and his staff, led to a well-earned state championship for the Princess Anne High School Cavaliers; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED by the House of Delegates, the Senate concurring, That the General Assembly commend and congratulate the Princess Anne High School boys’ basketball team on its outstanding 1998 - 1999 season; and, be it
