Agreed to by the House of Delegates, March 6, 2014

 

WHEREAS, Caleb Shane Tanner, a varsity basketball player for Floyd County High School, became the leading scorer in Virginia High School League history, with 2,713 points, achieved on February 20, 2014; and

WHEREAS, Floyd County High School head coach Brian Harman credited Caleb Tanner’s hard work, focus, and talent as major factors in his player’s outstanding accomplishment; the achievement was a huge one and well-deserved; and
