The bill, H. 3680, is a House Resolution that recognizes and honors the Pee Dee Academy softball team, coaches, and school officials for their outstanding performance during the 2024 season, culminating in their victory at the South Carolina Independent School Association Class 3A State Championship. The resolution highlights the team's impressive 22-2 record, their ability to overcome the loss of key players from the previous year, and their successful championship series against Orangeburg Preparatory School, where they won both games decisively.
The resolution also commends individual players for their exceptional contributions, including Maddie Coward, who was named Region 2 Player of the Year, and Baxleigh Arnette, who will continue her athletic career at Presbyterian College. The House of Representatives expresses its appreciation for the respect and recognition the team has brought to their school and community, and it looks forward to their future successes. A copy of the resolution will be presented to Head of School Allyson Carmichael and Coach Will Eskridge.
