             CONGRATULATING NICK ROWE OF MORAVIA, NEW YORK

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. AMO HOUGHTON

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, December 6, 2000

  Mr. HOUGHTON. Mr. Speaker, today I congratulate Nick Rowe, a star 
soccer player from the 31st.
  On September 12 of this year, Nick, the varsity goalkeeper for the 
Moravia High School Soccer team, broke a 21-year-old national record 
for accumulating 1,130 saves. The previous record of 936 saves was set 
by Brian Siebrasse of Malta, Illinois in 1979--three years before Nick 
was even born.
  Nick was featured in the September 25th edition of Sports 
Illustrated, and on ESPN in celebration of his record-breaking 
performance.
  So, Mr. Speaker, I just wanted to join Nick's family, friends, and 
teammates in congratulating him on this outstanding achievement. We all 
wish him well on his future endeavors.

                          ____________________
