To Commend The Maumelle Charter High School Falcons Boys' Golf Team For Winning The 2024 Class 3a State Championship.
Summary
SR 21 is a Senate resolution honoring the Maumelle Charter High School Falcons boys' golf team for winning the 2024 Class 3A State Championship. The resolution recites the team’s victory on October 7, 2024, at Cooper’s Hawk Golf Club in Melbourne, Arkansas, notes that the Falcons won by five strokes with a team score of 241, and identifies individual contributors and team members, including Drew Burns, Jase Holder, Haydn Robertson, and Carson Taylor.
The resolution also highlights the team’s broader achievements, including that it was the only Class 3A team with multiple All-State selections and that three team members earned All-State honors. It recognizes Head Coach James Mitchell and Athletic Director Tyler Posey, and it directs that a copy of the resolution be presented to Coach Mitchell upon adoption. As a ceremonial measure, it does not create or amend substantive law, but instead serves as an official legislative commendation from the Arkansas Senate.
Impact
SR 21 has no regulatory or fiscal effect and does not change Arkansas statutes, agency authority, or legal rights. Its impact is limited to formal recognition by the Senate of a high school athletic achievement, with the only procedural consequence being presentation of the adopted resolution to the team’s head coach.
Sentiment
The sentiment around the resolution is strongly positive and congratulatory. The bill text itself is celebratory, and there is no recorded committee debate, opposition, or vote history indicating controversy. The overall tone is one of public praise for the athletes, coach, and school community.
Contention
There are no notable points of contention in the available record. Because SR 21 is a nonbinding commendation resolution and no committee transcripts or votes are provided, there is no evidence of disagreement over the resolution’s substance, wording, or purpose.
