State Resolution Celebrates Seahawks’ Super Bowl LX Victory and Record-Breaking Performance

This resolution officially recognizes the Seattle Seahawks for their 29-13 victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX on February 8, 2026. The bill serves as a formal commendation of the franchise’s second championship title, documenting the specific statistics and milestones that defined the game. It isn't just a pat on the back for the team; it creates a permanent legislative record of the athletic and leadership achievements that brought the trophy back to the Pacific Northwest.

Record-Breakers and History-Makers

The resolution puts a spotlight on several historic firsts from the championship game. It honors Head Coach Mike Macdonald as the first defensive play-caller to win a Super Bowl and the third youngest coach to ever do so. General Manager John Schneider is also singled out for the unique feat of building two entirely different championship rosters. On the field, the bill highlights Kenneth Walker III’s MVP performance—the first for a running back since 1998—and kicker Jason Myers, who set a Super Bowl record with five field goals and became the first player in NFL history to break the 200-point mark in a single season.

Hometown Heroes and the 12th Man

A significant portion of the text is dedicated to the 'hometown' connection, specifically honoring players with deep Washington State roots. It recognizes Yakima’s Cooper Kupp and Shane Lemieux, alongside Everett’s Abraham Lucas, linking their local upbringing and education to their professional success. Finally, the resolution pays tribute to the fans, officially acknowledging the '12s' for their historical impact and loyalty since the retirement of the number 12 jersey in 1984. The Clerk of the House is directed to ensure that physical copies of this recognition are delivered to the Seahawks’ executive leadership and coaching staff.
