WHEREAS,
The members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio are
pleased to congratulate the St. Francis DeSales High School girls
lacrosse team on winning the 2025 Division II State Championship; and
WHEREAS,
A remarkable group of young athletes, the members of the St. Francis
DeSales High School girls lacrosse team have combined talent and
spirit with the highest ideals of good sportsmanship to establish
themselves as truly exceptional competitors. With admirable
dedication, the Stallions have worked diligently toward attaining

Division II State Championship and finished the season with an
impressive 22‑1 record; and

The Stallions’ achievements and leadership are a justifiable source
of pride and an excellent reflection on the players, their families,
their school, their community, and their coach, Abby Wickerham. In
leading her team to victory, Coach Wickerham has not only helped the
athletes to develop their talents to the fullest but also instilled
in them a valuable sense of determination, perseverance, and
camaraderie; and
WHEREAS,
With athletic competition playing such an important role in the total
education of our young people, we are extremely pleased to pay
tribute to these exemplary athletes and their outstanding coach for a
job well done. The maturity and experience the team members have
gained through their participation in sports will greatly aid them in
meeting the challenges of the future; therefore be it
RESOLVED,
That we, the members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly of
Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, commend the St. Francis DeSales
High School girls lacrosse team on its tremendous season and salute
the members and coach as some of Ohio’s finest citizens; and be it
further
RESOLVED,
That the Clerk of the Senate transmit a duly authenticated copy of
this Resolution to the St. Francis DeSales High School girls lacrosse
team.
