       RECOGNIZING VALOR CHRISTIAN'S STATE CHAMPION FOOTBALL TEAM

  (Mr. COFFMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. COFFMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Valor 
Christian High School football team.
  On Saturday night, the Eagles rallied to a 29-26 victory over Pomona 
to capture the State title for the sixth time in seven seasons.
  The comeback victory achieved by the team is a testament to their 
character and tenacity. The players stood

strong, and their victory in the final minutes is a credit to the 
determination and commitment of the entire team and Coach Rod Sherman.
  It is an honor to highlight the accomplishments of these young men, 
who finished the season 12-2 and established an impressive 30-1 playoff 
record.
  I would also like to recognize the championship game MVP, junior 
quarterback Dylan McCaffrey, who led the team on two touchdown drives 
in the final minutes to win the comeback victory.
  Again, congratulations to the Valor Christian High School football 
team on their impressive season.
