| Breaks Dale Falcons day Class 1A girl state basketball champion. So ladies and coach if you all want to come up here, I'll read | 00:18:56 | |
| this proclamation in and then we will give you guys a moment here. | 00:19:02 | |
| Exciting. | 00:19:09 | |
| You'll have about two minutes to prepare your speeches. | 00:19:11 | |
| So the proclamation reads Briggsdale Falcons day Wednesday, April 10th, 2024. Whereas the Briggsdale Falcons girls basketball team | 00:19:15 | |
| competed in the Class 1A state Championship game against the Stratton Eagles on Saturday, March 9th at Bank of Colorado Arena in | 00:19:22 | |
| Greeley. And whereas in a close game, continued determination and clutch shooting propelled the Falcons to a 4140V and the | 00:19:29 | |
| program's second consecutive state title. | 00:19:36 | |
| Whereas while much can be written about the game itself, senior Jenna Crisis 18 point performance, including the winning shot in | 00:19:44 | |
| the game's final moments or the overall teamwork that enabled Briggsdale to avenge a loss to Stratton earlier in the season, | 00:19:51 | |
| what's equally special is the effort that went into this year as a whole. And whereas while last year's state championship was | 00:19:57 | |
| historic in the first as the first in program history, this one speaks to continued determination and ability to resist | 00:20:03 | |
| complacency, something only possible. | 00:20:10 | |
| Now, therefore, be it proclaimed by the Board of well County Commissioners that the 10th day of April 2024 be known as Briggs Dale | 00:20:50 | |
| Falcons Day to commemorate a championship season signed by all 5 County commissioners. Congratulations. | 00:20:57 | |
| Coach, would you like to say anything and have any players say anything? | 00:21:08 | |
| I would just think that the county commissioners for recognizing us today. | 00:21:14 | |
| It's obviously an honor for these girls and us. We talk about it all the time. This is this is really, really hard. It's hard to | 00:21:20 | |
| do. | 00:21:24 | |
| And we just. | 00:21:29 | |
| Are blessed to have great parents and great community and great kids, and it's just a testament to how hard these kids worked. | 00:21:31 | |
| It's if it was this easy, everybody would do it and it's it's not that easy. So we appreciate that on a side note and not to get | 00:21:36 | |
| too political. | 00:21:42 | |
| As the score, we'd like to thank the county commissioners and the Lower County Sheriff's Office for having Deputy Carpeter in the | 00:21:49 | |
| school. It's. | 00:21:52 | |
| Unbelievable to have that and that option and I mean it's a high priority it should be and we appreciate that from you guys. | 00:21:56 | |
| Back to basketball. It's a great, great group of girls we talked about. Some of them are leaving that to be happy, you know? | 00:22:04 | |
| Don't be sad that it's over. Be glad that it happened so and some of us leave and just. | 00:22:14 | |
| Great girls. So there's a couple of them that maybe want to speak a little bit. I'm sure you want to hear from a little bit and a | 00:22:19 | |
| couple of them might want to speak to you. So I'll turn over them. Sounds great. Thanks, Coach. | 00:22:25 | |
