 COMMENDING MOUNT PLEASANT, NORTH CAROLINA, HIGH SCHOOL WRESTLING TEAM

  (Mr. HAYES asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HAYES. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to acknowledge and pay tribute 
to the Mount Pleasant High School Wrestling Team for the 2007 North 
Carolina High School Athletic Association State 1-A/2-A Championship 
Title win.
  Mount Pleasant completed an impressive run to the team championship 
title. The overall team record for the 2006-2007 season was 31-1. The 
Tigers also hold the 2007 titles of Cabarrus County Champions, Rocky 
River Conference Regular Season and Tournament Champions, and 1-A/2-A 
Midwest Regional Champions.
  This season there were nine State qualifiers and eight State place 
winners on the team, the most in Mount Pleasant's high school history. 
In the title match, Mount Pleasant recorded 135.5 points to second-
place Mayodan Dalton McMichael High School's 82 points.
  I am extremely proud of the hard work, dedication and scholarship of 
these young men from North Carolina's Eighth District. Congratulations, 
Coach Greg Hinson, Coach Randy Kaiser and the Mount Pleasant High 
School men's wrestling team on your successful season and State 
championship victory. Go Tigers.
