  Mr. LONG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Rogersville High 
School senior Alec Palen on his Class 3 State Championship Golf title 
and for being named to the Missouri All-State Team.
  Alec shot a two-day score of 145 to win the championship. His final 
putt was an uphill 8 footer on the 18th hole to clinch the victory for 
him.
  With his help, Rogersville High School finished second overall, a 
best in school history. The team shot a combined score of 640, only 3 
behind first place Pembroke Hill.
  I would also like to take this opportunity to say thank you to the 
team's head coach and father of Alec, Brett Palen, and Athletic 
Director Rod Gorman for their dedication and leadership.
  I am honored to recognize Alec Palen for his Class 3 State Golf 
Championship and being named to the All-State Team.
