Item 3A1The Southlake Carroll Dragon Football Team is the epitome of a team with a winning spirit and a tradition of championships that resulted from a focus on teamwork and the mastery of the game of football; and, Whereas, the Carroll Dragons successfully defended their 5A State Championship title against Austin Westlake at the Alamodome in San Antonio on December 23, 2006, and won the game with a score of 43-29, making it their fourth championship in five years and third consecutive State title; and, Whereas, the Dragons entered the 2006 Class 5A Division I state championship game with a perfect 16-0 record under Head Coach Todd Dodge ; and, Whereas, the Dragon team had added incentive to capture the 5A Title due to the departure of Coach Todd Dodge this season. Coach Dodge ended his seven-season tenure as Dragons coach to become the head coach at the University of North Texas; and, Whereas, the team claimed the top spot in USA TODAY’’s Super 25 final high school football rankings and the top spot in MaxPreps’s top ten Texas high school football rankings; now, Therefore, I, Mayor Andy Wambsganss, on behalf of the City Council, in recognition of the team’s outstanding performance and dedication, do hereby proclaim December 23, 2006, as Carroll Dragons Day
