          CONGRATULATIONS TO THE COASTAL CAROLINA CHANTICLEERS

  (Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, last Thursday, Coastal 
Carolina University won their first-ever national title in the College 
World Series in Omaha, Nebraska.
  The Chanticleers defeated the Arizona Wildcats 4-3 in the final game 
of the series. I am grateful to recognize the entire team, and 
especially honoring four members from the Second Congressional 
District: Andrew Beckwith of Blythewood, Connor Owings and Mike 
Morrison of Gilbert, and Brandon Miller of Aiken.
  Andrew, a junior at Coastal Carolina, first demonstrated his skills 
at Blythewood High School in South Carolina's Second District. He led 
Blythewood to a 27-7 record and secured a 4A State championship in 
2013. Andrew was also named the most outstanding player of the 2016 
College World Series.
  Prior to attending Coastal Carolina, seniors Connor Owings and Mike 
Morrison led Gilbert High School to a 2A State championship. Both 
Connor and Mike earned recognition on the Big South Presidential Honor 
Roll from 2013 to 2015.
  Freshman Brandon Miller, from Aiken High School, earned Second Team 
All-Area by the Augusta Chronicle.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops, and may the President, by his 
actions, never forget September the 11th in the global war on 
terrorism.
  Congratulations to Coastal Carolina University, represented by 
Congressman Tom Rice.
