   RECOGNIZING THE SUCCESS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII'S UNDEFEATED 
                             FOOTBALL TEAM

  (Ms. HIRONO asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. HIRONO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the 
University of Hawaii, my alma mater, and to congratulate its football 
team for an undefeated season. Coach June Jones and the entire team 
deserve recognition for all that they have accomplished this season. 
Their perfect record of 12 wins and no losses is the best in the 
school's history, and they are the champions of the Western Athletic 
Conference. UH is the only unbeaten team in the Nation; and, as a 
result, the Warriors have qualified for a BCS bowl game. The team has 
been led by star quarterback Colt Brennan, who is my candidate for the 
Heisman Trophy.

the Warriors' success.
  I join the rest of the Aloha State in cheering on the University of 
Hawaii and wish the team good luck in the Sugar Bowl.
