The resolution congratulates the Blackstone Valley Schools (BVS) Boys Co-Op Ice Hockey Team for their victory in the Rhode Island Division II High School State Hockey Championship in 2026. The team faced significant adversity following a tragic shooting incident that resulted in three fatalities just a month prior to the championship. Under the leadership of Head Coach Chris Librizzi, the team demonstrated resilience, culminating in a championship game where they defeated Lincoln High School 3-2 in four overtimes.

Key moments from the tournament are highlighted, including a performance by senior Colin Dorgan, who scored the game-winning goal in the semi-finals and played a crucial role in the championship match. The BVS team exemplified teamwork and dedication throughout the season, with contributions from all players and coaching staff. The House of Representatives of the State of Rhode Island expresses its congratulations to the team and authorizes the Secretary of State to transmit certified copies of the resolution to the coaches and players.
