What a way to finish the season.
Pearland Welding competed this week at the Texas High School Welding Series State Competition in Abilene, going head-to-head in the build-off against 19 other teams from across Texas and New Mexico.
This team has had a great year, and we could not be more proud of Thomas, Manuel, Jase, and Rolando for the hard work, dedication, leadership, and grit they brought to the build-off team.
Pearland Welding finished:
🏆 10th Place at State
🏆 3rd Place Overall in Season Points
🎓 Manuel Cuevas received a $1,250 scholarship
These young men are seniors, and with graduation coming up in the next few weeks, their futures are bright. The success they have already earned is only the beginning.
To Thomas, Manuel, Jase, and Rolando: thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey. You have made an impact on this program, your teammates, and on me personally. I am proud of the welders you have become, but even more proud of the young men you are becoming.
I wish you all the best in this next chapter. Keep working hard, stay humble, and go Build Pearland Proud!
