Honoring the Monroe Central High School boys basketball team on winning the 2025 Division VI State Championship.
Summary
House Resolution 113 is a ceremonial resolution honoring the Monroe Central High School boys basketball team for winning the 2025 Division VI State Championship. The resolution recognizes the team’s 43-35 victory over Maria Stein, praises the players as exemplary athletes, and commends coaches Jon Perkins and Mason Lang for their leadership and dedication.
The resolution also emphasizes the broader educational value of athletics, describing sports as a means of teaching self-reliance, discipline, perseverance, and the rewards of individual and team effort. It formally expresses the House’s appreciation for the team’s achievement and directs the Clerk of the House to transmit an authenticated copy of the resolution to the team.
Impact
HR113 does not change state law, create new programs, or appropriate funds. Its effect is purely ceremonial: it places the Ohio House’s official recognition on the record and publicly honors Monroe Central High School, its boys basketball team, and its coaches for winning a state championship. The resolution may have symbolic value for the school, players, coaches, and community, but it has no direct legal or regulatory impact on statutes or state agencies.
Sentiment
The sentiment surrounding the resolution is strongly positive and celebratory. The text is entirely laudatory, and there is no evidence of opposition, controversy, or divided votes in the provided materials. The resolution frames the team’s success as a source of pride and as an example of the character-building benefits of school athletics.
Contention
There are no notable points of contention in the available record. Because HR113 is a congratulatory resolution, it does not appear to have generated committee debate, floor controversy, or recorded dissent. The only substantive focus is the recognition of the team’s championship performance and the coaches’ role in that success.
