                            HON. JIM DeMINT

                         Tuesday, May 11, 2004

  Mr. DeMINT. Mr. Speaker, it is a privilege to congratulate the Bob 
Jones Academy Mock Trial team for winning the Championship at the 
National High School Mock Trial Competition in Orlando, Florida. The 
team represented their families, school, and State in an outstanding 
way and are an example of excellence, dedication, and teamwork to the 
country. I am very proud of their achievement.
  Success is never achieved alone, and I would like to extend 
congratulations to the families, friends, and teachers who share in 
this moment as well. Principal, Dr. David Fisher, and head coach, Mr. 
Michael Murphy, as well as his assistants Miss Ruth Hindman, Mr. Allen 
Fretwell, and Mr. Chuck Nicholas share in this honor by their 
investments in preparing the team.
  For over 75 years, Bob Jones Academy has maintained a tradition of 
excellence in Christian education with a faculty committed to preparing 
young lives--both in mind and character--to serve Christ in all walks 
of life. Ashleigh Millard, Matt Miller, Daniel Hindman, Ben Adams, 
Kerry Weigand, Richie Patton, Elizabeth Sowers, Emily Sowers, Alex 
George, Betsy Apelian, and Daniel Nickerson continue this tradition of 
excellence.
