                       Thursday, December 3, 2009

  Mr. GRAVES. Madam Speaker, I proudly rise to congratulate Coach Chris 
Holt and the Maryville High School football team for winning the 
Missouri Class 2 state championship. After a hard fought season, the 
Spoofhounds finished the year with an impressive 35-0 victory in the 
state final and a 14-1 record.
  Not only should these young men be proud of the enormity of their 
accomplishment but also the manner in which it was achieved. Throughout 
the season the Maryville football team played with heart, class and 
great sportsmanship. I join the entire Maryville community in 
congratulating the players and coaches on their many successes 
throughout the season and look forward to the seasons to come.
  Madam Speaker, I respectfully request you join with me in commending 
the Maryville Spoofhounds on their state championship.
