A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO CONGRATULATE THE COASTAL CAROLINA UNIVERSITY FOOTBALL TEAM, COACHES, AND STAFF ON THEIR FIRST POSTSEASON WIN IN PROGRAM HISTORY.

Whereas, to the great pleasure and satisfaction of their many fans, on November 24, 2012, the members of the Coastal Carolina University (CCU) football team won their first postseason game in program history, taking home a 24-14 victory over No. 22-ranked Bethune-Cookman in the NCAA FCS playoffs; and

Whereas, led by first-year CCU Coach Joe Moglia, 2012 Big South Football Coach of the Year and a finalist for Eddie Robinson FCS National Coach of the Year, the Chanticleers grabbed a share of the Big South Championship and earned the Big South Conference's automatic berth to the NCAA FCS playoffs--the team's third NCAA FCS appearance but only its first victory in that arena; and

Whereas, CCU, having posted an overall 8-5 record despite playing one of the nation's most difficult non-conference schedules, ranks among the nation's top twenty-five in rushing offense, passing offense, and scoring offense. The Chants set a Big South record by winning five consecutive games by 20-plus points and set a CCU record by rushing for over 200 yards in six straight contests. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, congratulate the Coastal Carolina University football team, coaches, and staff on their first postseason win in program history.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be provided to the Coastal Carolina football team.
