 Commending the Valdosta State University Blazers on winning the NCAA

Whereas on Saturday, December 15, 2007, the Valdosta State Blazers defeated

Whereas Valdosta State became the eighth school to win more than one Division II 
        Championship;
Whereas Michael Terry's one-yard game-winning touchdown run with 22 seconds left 
        was the third latest game-winning score in regulation play in the 35-
        year Division II Championship history;
Whereas the Valdosta State Blazers hold a 13 and 1 season record;
Whereas the Valdosta State won the Division II championship in 2004, making this 
        the second Division II championships in the last 4 years for the 
        Blazers;
Whereas the Blazers' head coach, David Dean, became the second first-year head 
        coach to lead his squad to the Division II Championship;
Whereas the Valdosta State Blazers play with tremendous heart, talent, and 
        sportsmanship; and
Whereas Valdosta State University continues to build its football legacy along 
        with engaging academics: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the United States House of Representatives commends 
the Valdosta State University Blazers for winning the NCAA Division II 
National Championship.
