Commend Northwest Mississippi Community College Lady Rangers Volleyball Team upon capturing the MACCC Championship.
Senate Resolution 111 is a ceremonial resolution honoring the Northwest Mississippi Community College Lady Rangers volleyball team and Head Coach Allison Burchyett for their 2024 season. The resolution recognizes the team’s inaugural Mississippi Association of Community Colleges Conference (MACCC) championship, a 25-9 record, a runner-up finish in NJCAA Region 23, and a 16-match winning streak.
The resolution also highlights individual accomplishments by several players, including All-MACCC honors for Rachel Stegall, Maddie Smith, Kaya Coleman, Layla Dyer, and Anna Lott, along with multiple school and career records in kills, blocks, assists, digs, service aces, and matches played. It formally commends the coaches and student-athletes for their sportsmanship, determination, and success, and directs that the resolution be presented to the team, the college president, and the board of trustees.
SR111 does not change state law, create new programs, or appropriate funds. Its effect is purely honorary and symbolic, serving to place the Mississippi Senate’s official recognition into the legislative record and to publicly commend Northwest Mississippi Community College, its volleyball program, and its leadership for athletic achievement.
The sentiment surrounding the resolution is strongly positive and unanimous. The Senate adopted the resolution 51-0 on March 19, 2025, indicating broad support and no recorded opposition. The language of the resolution is celebratory throughout, emphasizing pride, teamwork, excellence, and the distinction the team brought to the college and the state.
There is no substantive contention reflected in the bill text, voting history, or available discussion. Because SR111 is a commendation resolution rather than a policy measure, it does not appear to have generated debate over legal effects, spending, or regulatory changes. The only notable focus is on recognizing athletic success and individual player achievements.
