Commends and congratulates the Academy of the Sacred Heart Girls Golf Team for winning the Louisiana High School Athletic Association's Girls Division II State Golf Championship.
Summary
Senate Resolution 116 is a ceremonial measure that commends and congratulates the Academy of the Sacred Heart Girls Golf Team for winning the 2025 Louisiana High School Athletic Association (LHSAA) Girls Division II State Golf Championship. The resolution also recognizes the team’s dominant performance in the Metro Championship and highlights the contributions of individual players and coach Jennifer Caro.
The resolution recounts the team’s comeback from a one-stroke deficit after the first round, its low final-round score, and its nine-stroke margin of victory over Episcopal High School. It also notes Jade Neves’ individual state championship, Madeline Rudolph’s strong finish, and the fact that all four scoring members earned All Metro honors. The measure concludes by extending best wishes for continued success and directing that a copy be transmitted to the team.
Impact
SR116 does not change state law, create new programs, or appropriate funds. Its effect is purely symbolic: it places the Louisiana Senate’s official recognition into the legislative record and formally honors the Academy of the Sacred Heart Girls Golf Team, its coach, and its athletes for their athletic achievements in state and metro competition.
Sentiment
The sentiment around the resolution is wholly positive and celebratory. The bill text praises the team’s talent, perseverance, sportsmanship, and athletic excellence, and there is no recorded committee debate, vote opposition, or other indication of controversy in the provided materials. The resolution appears to have been treated as a routine commendation for a successful high school sports program.
Contention
There are no notable points of contention in the available record. Because the resolution is honorary and non-substantive, it does not appear to have raised policy disagreements, fiscal concerns, or procedural disputes. The only focus is on recognizing the team’s accomplishments and the individuals who contributed to the championship season.
