WHEREAS, although the Elmhurst Blue Jays took a slight lead in the first half, the Randolph-Macon Yellow Jackets responded with a 10–0 run and held a 15-point lead by halftime; the Yellow Jackets started the second half strong and never looked back, cruising to a lopsided win; and

WHEREAS, the victorious season is a tribute to the skill and determination of all the student-athletes, the leadership and guidance of coaches and staff, and the passionate support of the members of the Randolph-Macon College community, many of whom drove more than 10 hours to cheer for the team in the championship final; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED by the Senate of Virginia, That the Randolph-Macon College men’s basketball team hereby be commended on winning the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division III Men’s Basketball Championship; and, be it
