School football team from Macomb Township, Michigan, on winning the 
2006 Division 1 State title.
  The Dakota High School Cougars are the first school in Macomb County 
history to win the Division 1 football State championship.
  Mr. Speaker, this season belonged to the Cougars, whose overall 
record was 13 wins and only 1 loss. Coach Mike Giannoe did an excellent 
job of putting together a solid game plan and a solid coaching staff.
  Quarterback James Stallons commanded the offense, while running back 
Greg Gay led the scoring attack and tied a State finals record with 
four touchdowns.
  The offense moved the ball with the great teamwork of fullback 
Quentin Trotter, tight end Justin Sylvester and all of the linemen.
  On defense, linebacker Bobby Hush earned himself two sacks, and 
kicker Joe Harla connected on a 31-yard field goal and made all five of 
his extra point attempts.
  What a season, what a team. Go Cougars.
