Congratulates the Greenville Junior High School Bluejays baseball team for finishing second in the State championship with a 19-11 record on October 2, 2010, in East Peoria.

Recognizes that the Bluejays lost in the ninth inning to Shorewood Troy, who scored eight runs in the top of the ninth after the Bluejays had fought back from an earlier deficit.

Notes that the Bond County community held a parade and reception on October 3, 2010, at the Bond County courthouse square and Greenville Junior High School gymnasium to honor the team.

Lists 23 team members and 4 coaching staff members, including Coach Trevor Stoecklin, who praised the team for an unforgettable season.

Directs that a suitable copy of the resolution be presented to Coach Stoecklin and the Greenville Junior High School Bluejays as a symbol of respect and esteem.
