- Introduced: February 19, 2025
- Status (as provided): Taken by the Clerk of the House and presented to the Secretary of State in accordance with the Rules of the House.

Purpose and intent

HCR 78 is a ceremonial resolution that formally recognizes and commends the Richwood High School boys’ basketball team for winning the Louisiana High School Athletic Association (LHSAA) 2025 Division III Non‑select state championship. The resolution’s purpose is to congratulate players, coaches, school staff, and the community for the achievement and to place recognition on the legislative record.

Key provisions

  • Officially commends the Richwood High School boys’ basketball team for capturing the 2025 LHSAA Division III Non‑select state title.
  • Expresses legislative congratulations to team members, coaches, trainers, school administrators, families, and supporters for their effort, sportsmanship, and contribution to school and community pride.
  • Typically such resolutions may request that official copies be transmitted to the school and coaching staff (noting specific transmission language was not included in the excerpt).

Who is affected

  • Directly honored: Richwood High School players, coaching staff, athletic department, school administration and students.
  • Indirectly honored: Families, alumni, local community, and school district; the resolution also contributes to the public record of the school’s athletic achievements.

Legal and fiscal impact

  • No legal force: As a concurrent resolution of commendation, HCR 78 does not create law, change policy, or appropriate funds.
  • No fiscal effect: The measure carries no budgetary or administrative obligations for state agencies.

Procedural/timeline notes

  • Introduced Feb 19, 2025.
  • The provided status line indicates the Clerk took the resolution and it was presented to the Secretary of State according to House rules (a procedural step for final processing of resolutions). There is no indication in the primary summary text of any substantive committee amendments or fiscal notes — consistent with the ceremonial nature of the measure.

Note: The package of documents supplied with the request included unrelated legislative texts from other jurisdictions (e.g., task‑force and funding commission language). Those appear to be extraneous and are not part of HCR 78’s commendation of Richwood High School.
