   HONORING EULESS TRINITY HIGH SCHOOL FOR WINNING THE 5A DIVISION I 
                      FOOTBALL STATE CHAMPIONSHIP

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. KENNY MARCHANT

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, January 15, 2008

  Mr. MARCHANT. Madam Speaker, I rise today to extend my 
congratulations to the 2007 Euless Trinity High School football team 
upon winning the 5A Division I State Championship on Saturday, December 
22, 2007.
  The Trinity Trojans' 13-10 win over Converse Judson Rockets in the 
San Antonio Alamodome gave the program its second State title in 3 
years. It is believed that defenses win championships and this game was 
no exception as the Trojans held the Rockets scoreless during the 
second half. Despite the fact that all of the scoring took place in the 
first and second quarters, the second half was just as thrilling as the 
defense stopped the Converse Judson's offensive attack while the 
Trojans' tireless running offense wore down the Rockets and controlled 
the clock. Under Coach Steve Lineweaver's tenure, Euless Trinity has 
amassed an 88-16 record and has won 14 of its last 16 playoff games.
  I am extremely proud to represent Euless Trinity High School in 
Congress and I congratulate the players, coaches, fans and parents who 
made the 2007 season a memorable and victorious one.

                          ____________________
