                       Friday, December 16, 2005

  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I would like to recognize today 
the players and coaches of the Clay County High School Varsity football 
team from Alabama's Third Congressional District.
  On December 3rd, the Clay County Panthers won their sixth State 
Championship title with a 31-0 victory over Southern Choctaw in the 
Class 2A final. These talented young athletes won the game after 
beating a tough opponent. In particular I would like to give tribute to 
the Panther defense, who in this game helped shutout their ninth 
opponent of the season.
  I am proud to acknowledge and congratulate the Clay County High 
School Varsity Football team of 2005 in the House today, and extend my 
most heartfelt congratulations to these talented young people for this 
significant accomplishment.

                          ____________________
