                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, November 27, 2001

  Mr. COMBEST. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the members of 
the Amarillo High woman's volleyball team in their great victory in the 
class 5A state championship. Their November 17th triumph marks the 
fourth state championship title for the Lady Sandies, an accomplishment 
that is truly deserving of recognition and praise.
  The Amarillo High woman's volleyball program has been built upon a 
solid foundation of hard work, dedication and sportsmanship. This 
year's team had a strong season with an impressive 37-2 record. The 
Lady Sandies played every game with powerful determination and energy. 
This team showcases the ability of today's youth to pull together as a 
team to reach their goals, and support one another.
  It is with great pride that I recognize the members of the Amarillo 
High's Lady Sandies volleyball team and their coaches for this 
accomplishment, as well as the administration and fans that carried 
them to victory. Thanks to their tremendous efforts, Amarillo, Texas is 
now home to the 2001-2002 Class 5A State Champions. I salute the Lady 
Sandies for bringing home another state volleyball title.
