HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION NO. 691 Offered January 20, 1997 Commending the Chantilly High School football team. ---------- Patrons-- McClure; Senator: Barry ----------

WHEREAS, on a cold, rainy December afternoon in Fairfax, the Chantilly High School football team overcame both the elements and an extremely talented team from Danville to win the Virginia High School League Group AAA, Division 6, state championship; and

WHEREAS, relying on a powerful ground attack and a stifling defense, the Chantilly Chargers prevailed, 14-7, over previously undefeated George Washington High School of Danville; and

WHEREAS, the Chargers' defense yielded only 85 yards to the Eagles, forced four turnovers, and did not allow George Washington to cross mid-field in the second half; and

WHEREAS, in capping a 13-1 season with Chantilly's first football state championship, the Chargers of Head Coach Danny Meier rewarded their loyal supporters; and

WHEREAS, the triumph of the 1996 Chantilly High School football team is a tribute to the perseverance, teamwork, and adaptability of the players, the inspired leadership of the coaching staff, and the unwavering support of the parents, students, faculty, and staff of Chantilly High School; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED by the House of Delegates, the Senate concurring, That the General Assembly salute the Chargers of Chantilly High School on their first state football championship; and, be it

RESOLVED FURTHER, That the Clerk of the House of Delegates prepare a copy of this resolution for presentation to Head Coach Danny Meier in honor of the triumphant 1996 season of the Chantilly High School football team.
