team title with a two-day total of 421 (11-under par), winning the championship by a
remarkable 69-stroke margin, further reinforcing the program's statewide and national
reputation for excellence; and
WHEREAS, in addition to championship success, the program has captured every
Area/Region Championship for over 14 consecutive seasons, marking one of the longest
sustained runs of dominance in GHSA girls golf; and

The resolution directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare copies of the document for distribution to Lambert High School and its girls golf coaching staff.
