SR 83 Ohio Senate · 136th Legislature (2025-2026)

Honoring the Bellevue High School girls basketball team on winning the 2025 Division IV State Championship.

This is a ceremonial resolution (not a law) honoring the Bellevue High School girls basketball team for winning the 2025 Division IV State Championship - their first title. It directly affects the team, their coach (Kory Santoro), and Bellevue High School by formally recognizing their achievement through a Senate resolution. The resolution includes no new policies or funding; it simply expresses the Senate's commendation and directs a copy to be sent to the team. Adopted by the Ohio Senate on April 1, 2025.

MODERATE
The bill underwent significant formatting and structural reorganization from its introduction to Senate adoption, with the primary substantive change being a reordering of the WHEREAS clauses. The original version had a title-focused opening clause, while the adopted version restructured the resolution to place the commendation clause first, followed by the team's achievements, then the coach's leadership, and finally the general qualities of the team. This reorganization improves logical flow but does not alter the bill's substantive purpose of honoring the Bellevue High School girls basketball team for their 2025 Division IV State Championship.
TECHNICAL

Reordered the WHEREAS clauses from chronological/achievement-based to thematic organization, placing the Senate's commendation first rather than the team's specific achievements.

Changed the title format from multi-line descriptive title to single-line title with line breaks, improving readability.

Removed page numbers and line numbering that were present in the original draft but not needed in the adopted version.

Added 'Senator' line above the name, clarifying the sponsor's role in the adopted version.
