Board adopts resolutions recognizing Lancaster High School boys’ and girls’ indoor track state achievements
Summary
The Lancaster County Board of Supervisors passed two resolutions recognizing Lancaster High School's 2025 boys' team for the VHSL Class 1 indoor team championship and the girls' team for multiple individual state champions and a fourth‑place team finish.
The Lancaster County Board of Supervisors unanimously adopted two resolutions on March 25 recognizing Lancaster High School’s indoor track accomplishments at the Virginia High School League Class 1 state meet.
The first resolution recognized the Lancaster High School boys indoor track and field team as the 2025 VHSL Class 1 state champions after scoring 82 points at the state meet. The resolution, read into the record by the board chair, listed the boy athletes and their individual placements and named coaches including Draper Washington, Marcus Ferguson, James Tim and Bob Deese. The board passed the resolution by voice vote; the clerk recorded “Ayes have it. Resolution passed.”
The second resolution recognized the Lancaster High School girls indoor track and field team for producing multiple individual state champions and for placing fourth as a team with 51 points at the VHSL Class 1 indoor championship. The girls’ resolution likewise named individual placings and the coaching staff; the board approved the resolution by voice vote and ordered it be conveyed to the Lancaster County School Board and Lancaster High School athletic director, and to be included in the meeting minutes.
Why it matters: The resolutions formally record county recognition of local student‑athletes and provide an official copy of the board’s appreciation to the school system and coaches.
Board action: Both resolutions were adopted by voice vote during the March 25 meeting; no roll‑call tally was recorded in the transcript beyond the board chair’s announcement that the “Ayes have it.”
Ending: The board invited athletes and coaches forward for presentations and photos after the votes.
