SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 91 Commending the New Kent High School softball team.

 

Agreed to by the Senate, January 19, 2023

 

WHEREAS, the New Kent High School softball team won the Virginia High School League Class 3 state championship on June 11, 2022, at Spotsylvania High School; and

WHEREAS, the New Kent High School Trojans defeated the Lord Botetourt High School Cavaliers of Daleville by a score of 3–0 to bring home the first state championship title in program history; and

WHEREAS, the New Kent Trojans jumped out to an early 2–0 lead in the first inning of the game and never looked back, adding an insurance run in the sixth inning to seal the win; and

WHEREAS, the New Kent Trojans’ victory was a total team effort, bolstered by a standout performance from pitcher Morgan Berg, who tallied 10 strikeouts and gave up only two hits on the way to pitching a complete-game shutout; and

WHEREAS, the New Kent Trojans’ offense was supported by the exceptional play of Alline Alexander, Abbie Kegley, McKenna Mueller, and Norah Murray, who all had clutch hits in the game; and

WHEREAS, the New Kent Trojans were dominant at the plate throughout their 2022 campaign, slugging an impressive 23 home runs collectively as a team over the season; and

WHEREAS, the New Kent Trojans’ title win was a redemptive moment for several members of last year’s team, who had previously reached the state championship game only to finish runner-up; and

WHEREAS, the success of the New Kent Trojans is the result of the hard work and dedication of the student-athletes, the leadership and guidance of their coaches and teachers, and the unwavering support of their parents and the entire New Kent High School community; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED by the Senate of Virginia, That the New Kent High School softball team hereby be commended for winning the 2022 Virginia High School League Class 3 state championship; and, be it

RESOLVED FURTHER, That the Clerk of the Senate prepare a copy of this resolution for presentation to Maria Bates, coach of the New Kent High School softball team, as an expression of the Senate of Virginia’s admiration for the team’s achievement.
