WHEREAS,
The members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly of Ohio are
pleased to extend special recognition to Hayden Hollingsworth on
placing first in the 50-yard freestyle event at the 2025 Division I
State Swim Meet; and
WHEREAS,
Hayden Hollingsworth is deserving of this prestigious honor, a
tribute to the remarkable athletic gifts and indomitable spirit that
she has so amply displayed as a senior member of the Upper Arlington
High School girls swim team. A tenacious competitor, she could always
be counted on to shine, and at this year’s Division I State Meet,
she placed first in the 50-yard freestyle with a time of 22.75, her
third consecutive such crown in this event, and second in the
100-yard butterfly with a time of 53.82. In addition, she helped the
200-yard medley and freestyle relay teams finish first with times of
1:41.72 and 1:33.98, respectively, and understandably, the strength,
agility, stamina, and skill that she has exhibited have earned her
many admirers; and
WHEREAS,
Hayden Hollingsworth has conscientiously applied herself to the quest
for excellence as an athlete, training and practicing diligently in
order to ensure peak conditioning. Time and again, she has risen to
the occasion, maintaining her morale, composure, and good
sportsmanship, and she has gained the respect of even her most
determined rivals. Clearly, her enthusiastic involvement in swimming
has enabled her to learn much about dedication, self-discipline, and
leadership, and in the process, her exceptional prowess has made her
family and friends very proud; and
WHEREAS,
Few sports embody the spirit of individual and team accomplishment
more than swimming, and athletes such as Hayden Hollingsworth
exemplify the qualities necessary for excellence in any sport,
including discipline, conditioning, and focus. Indeed, throughout
long hours of competition, she has consistently demonstrated the
talent and motivation that are the hallmarks of a true champion;
therefore be it
RESOLVED,
That we, the members of the Senate of the 136th General Assembly of
Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, congratulate Hayden Hollingsworth
for outstanding athletic achievement and applaud her as an
outstanding Ohioan; and be it further
RESOLVED,
That the Clerk of the Senate transmit a duly authenticated copy of
this Resolution to Hayden Hollingsworth.
