The resolution congratulates the 2025 Burlington High School Seahorses girls basketball team for their remarkable achievement in winning the Division I championship, ending a 49-year championship drought for the team. The Seahorses, a talented third-seeded team, faced off against the top-seeded St. Johnsbury Academy Hilltoppers at the University of Vermont's Patrick Gymnasium, where they showcased their skills and determination. With an inspiring pep talk from former Seahorses MVP Wanda Hines, the team took control of the game early, ultimately securing a decisive 53-33 victory, with two players scoring 20 points each.
The resolution acknowledges the contributions of the players, including Emma Maley, Nylah Mitchell, and others, as well as the leadership of Head Coach Beverlis Robertson and assistant coaches Brittany Robertson and Klaire Ware. It expresses the General Assembly's pride in the team's historic accomplishment and directs the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to Burlington High School as a formal recognition of their success.
