                        Wednesday, March 5, 1997

  Mr. SKELTON. Mr. Speaker, today, I wish to recognize the members of 
the Oak Grove High School wrestling team and their coach, Bob Glasgow, 
for their outstanding achievements and continued excellence in the 
sport of wrestling.
  During Coach Glasgow's career at Oak Grove High School, he has 
developed a wrestling program that is known for excellence and success. 
Last season, the Oak Grove wrestling team won numerous tournament 
championships as well as the district 6 championship for the eighth 
consecutive year. Under the direction of Coach Glasgow, ten exceptional 
wrestlers qualified for the State tournament.
  This kind of outstanding achievement has been a tradition for Coach 
Glasgow and his wrestling team during his 14 years at Oak Grove High 
School. During Coach Glasgow's tenure as the wrestling coach, the Oak 
Grove wrestling team has won 8 State championships and has had 39 
individual State champions. In addition, nine Oak Grove wrestlers have 
signed division 1 scholarships during this time period.
  I wish to extend my congratulations to the Oak Grove High School 
wrestling team for their continued tradition of excellence.
