                         Wednesday, May 7, 2014

  Mr. GOHMERT. Mr. Speaker, it is with enormous pride that I recognize 
and congratulate the Brook Hill Lady Guard on a stellar 2013- 2014 
soccer season in which they once again captured the TAPPS Division III 
state championship.
   The Brook Hill Lady Guard triumphed over the Austin Veritas Lady 
Defenders with a final score of 1-0, and finished a magnificent season 
with a perfect 19-0 record.
   The defending champion Lady Guard boasted 17 consecutive shutouts, 
and the entire season only saw them giving up two goals.
   The Brook Hill Lady Guard's championship success is a tribute to the 
coach who brought his team back for another chance at victory, as well 
as a tribute to the players and all who assisted them along the way.
   This recognition of their accomplishment is extended to all of the 
athletic staff including the outstanding Head Coach David Collins, 
Assistant Coaches Jordan Roquemore and Neal McGowan, and Trainer 
Tristan Trevino, all under the outstanding leadership of Athletic 
Director Wally Dawkins, as well as the stellar school administration 
headed by Rod Fletcher.
   The team members responsible for bringing the second championship 
title home to east Texas include Hayden Langemeier, Kennedy Rose, Lily 
Cool, Katherine Stair, Tito Babatunde, Maria Moore, Ari Assad, Elise 
Hawkins, Danielle Adams, Janet Nwachukwu, Hope Cooper, Kendall Wells, 
Hayley Dumesnil, Li Ming, Morgan Moss, Penny End, Katie Smith, and 
Julia Troxell.
   The Brook Hill staff and the entire community of Bullard have 
devoted countless hours to support and encourage these young ladies in 
the pursuit of their dream.
   It is my most esteemed honor to congratulate everyone involved with 
this endeavor. May God continue to bless these young women, their 
families and friends, and all those individuals who call Bullard, Texas 
their home.
   Congratulations to the 2014 TAPPS Division III State Soccer 
Champions, the Brook Hill Lady Guard, as their back to back 
championship legacy is now recorded in the Congressional Record that 
will endure as long as there is a United States of America.
