STATE CHAMPS--LASSITER AND BLESSED TRINITY
(Mr. PRICE of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the
House for 1 minute.)
Mr. PRICE of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, today I proudly rise to honor and
congratulate some spectacular student athletes from Georgia's Sixth
District. This month, two of our hometown high schools won a State
baseball championship.
Marietta's Lassiter High School and Roswell's Blessed Trinity High
both took home their respective class' State championship in dominating
fashion. These skilled young men showed what is possible with hard work
and unending determination.
Lassiter took home the school's second State title after beating
another Sixth District team, Kell High School. The Trojans ended their
season with 19 straight wins, sweeping every round of the playoffs.
Blessed Trinity amazed everyone with their ascendancy to the State
title in only 6 years of existence. Similar to Lassiter, the Titans
went through the playoffs losing only one game and sweeping four out of
five series.
These student athletes will forever cherish the memory of this
season. The players, their families, and their classmates who cheered
them on will always look back at the 2006 season as a source of pride,
accomplishment and satisfaction.
Mr. Speaker, congratulations to all from Lassiter and Blessed Trinity
High Schools.
