                      Thursday, December 31, 2015

  Mr. GARAMENDI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the East 
Nicolaus High School Spartans for winning the Northern California 
championship, advancing to the CIF Division VI-AA Championship Game to 
be played in San Diego on December 19, 2015.
  Under the leadership of Coach Travis Barker, this school of 250 
students from Trowbridge in Sutter County will be making a road trip of 
over 500 miles to face a school four times their size.
  They may be underdogs in this championship game, but this team and 
these players are tough. They have proven their worth throughout the 
season. They are prepared and disciplined, and will represent Sutter 
County well.
  The Spartans have had an incredible season, and I wish them the best 
of luck in the championship game.
