RESOLUTION
TO RECOGNIZE AND
HONOR THE MCBEE HIGH SCHOOL VARSITY BASEBALL TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL
OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE
2025 DIVISION A STATE BASEBALL CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.
W
hereas, the South
Carolina House of Representatives is pleased to learn that on May 31, 2025, at
Francis Marion University, the McBee Panthers varsity baseball team became
state champions for the fourth time since 2016, after defeating the Lake View
High School Wild Gators two games to one to capture the 2025 Division A State
Baseball Championship series; and
W
hereas, determined to
come out on top after losing game two of the championship series, McBee gained the
momentum early with three runs in the third inning, a lead which the Panthers
maintained and extended throughout the contest with a combination of stand-up
pitching, defense, hitting, and base running, resulting in a final score of 8-1;
and
W
hereas, McBee starting
senior pitcher, Aiden Hughes, was on the mound for all seven innings, leading
the team to victory, giving up only five hits and one run over seven innings,
striking out seven and walking two. Hughes also helped the Panthers secure the
win with two runs batted in and went 1-for-3 at the plate; and
W
hereas, other standout
performances for the Panthers included third-inning scoring by Cohen Reid, J.J.
Melton, and Landon Tedder, who reached base on a fielder's choice, by drawing a
walk, and by singling, respectively; a fourth-inning run by Manning Tolsen on a
hit by Cohen Reid; and insurance runs later in the game, including a run by
Evan Norris on a sacrifice RBI fly by Landon Tedder. The win for McBee
showcased the strong teamwork, dedication, and perseverance of every Panther;
and
W
hereas, Head Coach Josh Tiller
was confident in his team and the hard work that they put in to get to this
point. He knew that the loss to Lake View would be a motivator to his team,
urging them to fight hard and get the win. Both teams came into this final game
with something to prove and McBee played a great game that was a testament to
their skilled players and dedicated coaches, as well as their devoted school and
community support; and
W
hereas, in a sport that
demands discipline, focus, and strength, Coach Tiller and his skilled coaching
staff utilized their own experiences and passion for the sport to craft a
championship-caliber team and teach these young athletes life principles and
lessons that will prove invaluable through life on and off the diamond; and
W
hereas, the members of
the South Carolina House of Representatives value the pride and recognition
that the McBee Panthers baseball team has brought to their school and community
and look forward to following their future successes. Now, therefore,
B
e it resolved by the
House of Representatives
:
T
hat the members of the
South Carolina
House of Representatives
,
by this resolution, recognize and honor the McBee High School varsity baseball
team, coaches, and school officials for an outstanding season and congratulate
