(H.C.R.146)
Offered by: Representatives Stevens of Waterbury, Dolan of Waitsfield, Torre of
Moretown, and Wood of Waterbury Whereas, the team’s focused concentration aptly highlighted the 2023 Division II boys’
soccer championship game played at the Maxfield Sports Complex in Hartford between the third-seeded Harwood Union High School Highlanders and the ninth-ranked Green Knights of Rice Memorial High School, and Whereas, despite repeated scoring attempts, the contest remained scoreless into the second overtime period, and Whereas, a Highlander player took advantage of an opportunity to employ his left foot to direct the ball into the goal zone and clinch the game and title for Harwood, and afterward, while holding the ball tightly, he described his scoring experience as unreal, and Whereas, the proficient Highlanders, whose 13–1–4 record included a 17-game undefeated streak, were Matthew Fiaschetti, Emmett Lisai, Lincoln Dice, Teighen Fils-
Aime, Cole Shullenberger, Eamon Langlais, Eamon Knight, Caleb Brookens, Steele Nelson, Zachary Smith, Jackson McKay, Jack Greenwood, Owen Farr, Eli Herrington,
Brycen Scharf, Dylan Rogers, Ollie Reilly, Tucker Buffum, Felix Kretz, Cody Milia,
Finnegan Kramer, Dylan Mauro, Anthony Caforia, Will Andrus, Tyce Begin, and Tristan Lafayette, and Whereas, Head Coach Joe Yalicki and assistant coaches Elan Shems and Lloyd Gotshall wisely advised the team throughout the soccer season, now therefore be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives:
That the General Assembly congratulates the 2023 Harwood Union High School Division II boys’ championship soccer team, and be it further Resolved: That the Secretary of State be directed to send a copy of this resolution to
