The resolution honors the Stanhope Elmore Boys Bowling Team for their historic achievement in winning the 2026 Alabama High School Athletic Association (AHSAA) Division 6A/7A Boys Bowling Championship. This victory, secured on January 30, 2026, at Bowlero Bowling Center in Mobile, marks the first state championship title for the boys' bowling program, which has been a strong contender since its reinstatement in the 2015-2016 school year. The Mustangs triumphed over the Hoover Buccaneers in a dramatic comeback, overcoming a 50-pin deficit to win by 28 pins, all while competing with a small roster of only six bowlers.

The resolution also recognizes the exceptional performances of individual team members, including Seth Wilson, who was named the No. 1 bowler at the tournament, and Drake Abbott, who was ranked No. 7. Coach Kenny Wilson, honored as the AHSAA Coach of the Year, played a pivotal role in guiding the team to victory, emphasizing the importance of skill over luck. The resolution expresses heartfelt congratulations to the team, coaches, and the supportive community, celebrating their dedication and commitment to achieving this remarkable milestone in local sports history.
