as the 2023 Division I State Champion.

WHEREAS,  The members of the House of Representatives of the 135th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to pay tribute to the Dublin Jerome High School girls swim and dive team on winning the 2023 Division I Swimming and Diving State Tournament; and

WHEREAS,  Dublin Jerome High School girls swim and dive team members Libby Grether, Zoe Musselman, Charlotte Laycock, Audrey Brink, Milly Leonard, Olivia Matson, Helen Randolph, Addison Thomas, Elle Recor, Lily Schweign, Ashlyn Walter, Anna Hiller, Helen Randolph, Milly Leonard, Shanti Visurakapalli, Annika Grillo-Hviid, and Chloe Grooms have combined talent and competitive spirit with the highest ideals of good sportsmanship to establish themselves as a truly exceptional squad. With admirable dedication, these fine young athletes have worked diligently toward attaining ultimate proficiency in their sport, and as a result, they amassed 225 points to win this year’s Division I Swimming and Diving State championship title, the first such crown in program history; and 

WHEREAS,  The achievements and leadership of the Celtics are a justifiable source of pride and an excellent reflection on them, their families, their school, their community, and their coaches, Jordan Gundlach and Morgan Quesnel. The success of any athletic endeavor depends largely on the ability of the coaches to provide both guidance and inspiration, and in leading their team to victory, coaches Gundlach and Quesnel have not only helped the squad members to develop their talents to the fullest, but they have also instilled in each a valuable sense of determination, perseverance, and camaraderie; and

WHEREAS,  With athletic competition playing such an important role in the total education of our young people, we are overjoyed to pay tribute to these fine athletes and their outstanding coaches for a job well done. The maturity and experience the Celtics have gained through participation in sports will greatly aid them in meeting the challenges of the future; therefore be it

RESOLVED,  That we, the members of the House of Representatives of the 135th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, commend the Dublin Jerome High School girls swim and dive team on its tremendous season and salute the members and coaches as some of Ohio’s finest citizens; and be it further

RESOLVED,  That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to the Dublin Jerome High School girls swim and dive team.
