                           HON. ANNA G. ESHOO

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, September 28, 2012

  Ms. ESHOO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Sean Cole, a 1992 
graduate of Sacred Heart Preparatory. The School is proud to offer the 
Athletic Hall of Fame to honor him for his athletic achievements. The 
award recognizes contributions of alumni athletes, teams, coaches, and 
administrators of Sacred Heart Preparatory. Individuals like Sean Cole 
who are inducted into the Hall of Fame have made significant 
achievements in his sports of soccer and baseball and exemplified the 
principals of sportsmanship and Christianity as illustrated in the 
Goals and Criteria of Sacred Heart Schools.
  Before Sean Cole became an outstanding goalkeeper, he was varsity 
baseball starter for four years and was the first topline pitcher to 
attend SHP. While playing baseball he played third base and batted in 
middle of lineup, which is reserved for strong hitters. Sean is a 
tremendous athlete with unmatched effort and integrity. While attending 
college at Skyline College in San Bruno, California he played soccer 
and coached at Menlo College and SHP. Sean is a perfect representation 
of what it takes to excel at our passions and demonstrates a great 
level of determination.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Sean Cole, an 
athlete who lives a life which embodies the goals and criteria of 
Sacred Heart Schools. He lives the five commitments of faith, respect, 
social awareness, community building and personal growth, and his 
contributions to his sport have strengthened our community and our 
country immeasurably.
