senior wide receiver Jayden Alexander, who had five receptions for 148 yards and
scored twice; junior wide receiver Tre Green, who caught a touchdown pass;
senior quarterback Will Watson, who rushed for a score and threw for a touchdown;
and junior running back Grayson Salego, who had a rushing touchdown in the
fourth quarter; and

W
hereas, in a sport that
requires mental and physical strength, Head Coach DeVonte Holloman and his
talented staff utilized their own experience and passion for the sport to craft
a championship-caliber team. The lessons they have taught these young athletes
will prove invaluable throughout their lives on and off the field; and

W
hereas, the members of
South Carolina General Assembly value the pride and recognition that the

look forward to following the Panthers and celebrating their future
achievements. Now, therefore,
