                       HON. CONSTANCE A. MORELLA

                               of maryland

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, June 29, 1995
  Mrs. MORELLA. Mr. Speaker, on June 4, the Montgomery Soccer Inc. 
Falcons U-12 girls team won its third consecutive Maryland State Cup 
championship, defeating the Soccer Club of Baltimore Flames, 2-1. The 
win qualifies the Falcons to represent Maryland in the Eastern Regional 
Championship Tournament in Niagara Falls this weekend. The win was 
especially meaningful for the Falcon players and their parents and for 
coach Harry Martens and assistant coach Chrissie Gardner, as the game 
was dedicated to the memory of E Soo Kim, father of goalie Chris Kim.
  Forward Laura Hur recorded the first goal of the game, with an assist 
by Lane Fogarty, who had an outstanding day and was voted game MVP by 
tournament officials. The Falcons mid fielders and defenders, Beth 
Hendricks, Christie Bird, Audra Poulin, Carrie Smith, Amy Salomon, 
Lindsey Henderson, Caitlin Curtis, Kerry Fleisher, Alexis Byrd, Tara 
Quinn and Megan Corey held the Flames to just three shots and no goals 
during the first half. The Falcons' forwards, Fogarty, Hur, Jenny 
Potter and Kim Sperling, kept the pressure on the Flames. Forward 
Jeanie Bowers was injured, but hoped to be ready for the Eastern 
Regionals. The Falcons reached the finals of the State Cup by winning 
all four of their State Cup Round Robin Tournament matches, outscoring 
their opponents, 23-0.
  Congratulations to the Falcons and best wishes for success in the 
Eastern Tournament.
