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

men's basketball teams. Ladies, it's an awesome opportunity and it's a great time to be in women's athletics as a proud father of 00:27:52

You have an amazing coach, Coach Nicholas. You do an awesome job with these young ladies. You're able to transform them. You teach 00:28:08
them great life lessons. But it's amazing to watch how you cultivate them with their basketball skills from a young age and bring 00:28:14
them up through. And it's skills that go on way past high school. You get your girls will have a good time playing Jenna. That 00:28:20
shot you hit to win the game is an athletic shot. 00:28:26
You can play anywhere that that that's a pure basketball shot. That was amazing to watch. So fun watching you guys win. It's a 00:28:35
