R E S O L U T I O N
               WHEREAS, The members of the East Chambers High School
  football team distinguished themselves by winning the 2023 Swamp
  Bowl over Anahuac High School; and
               WHEREAS, An annual showdown between the District 10-3A
  rivals, the 2023 edition of the game took place on October 13 at
  Buccaneer Stadium in Winnie; and
               WHEREAS, The teams battled to a near draw in the first half,
  with the Anahuac Panthers taking an 8-7 lead into the locker room;
  the Buccaneers took command in the second half, scoring on their
  first possession and then cashing in a turnover to up their
  advantage to 21-8 in the third quarter; after Anahuac narrowed the
  gap to 21-15, East Chambers slammed the door on its foe in the final
  frame, scoring on a fumble recovery, delivering key stops on fourth
  down attempts, and adding a final touchdown with less than two
  minutes remaining; the Buccaneers emerged victorious by the final
  score of 35-15 after racking up 344 total yards of offense in the
  contest; and
               WHEREAS, By triumphing in the 2023 Swamp Bowl, the East
  Chambers Buccaneers have become a source of great pride to their
  school and their community, and they are indeed deserving of
  special recognition for this impressive accomplishment on the
  gridiron; now, therefore, be it
               RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 88th Texas
  Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby congratulate the East
  Chambers High School football team on its victory in the 2023 Swamp
  Bowl and extend to the players, coaches, and staff sincere best
  wishes for continued success; and, be it further
               RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for the Buccaneers as an expression of high regard by the
  Texas House of Representatives.
