  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I ask for the House's attention 
to recognize the 500th win of the Piedmont High School Football Team in 
Piedmont, Alabama.
  On December 1, 2016, Piedmont High School won the Alabama High School 
Athletic Association (AHSAA) Class 3A football state title for the 
second year in a row. The team's very first win was over Cave Spring 
High School in October of 1924 under Coach J.O. Ogle.
  Piedmont High School's football team has had two All-American 
players, over 100 All-State players and 215 All-County players with six 
alumni players who have been inducted into the Calhoun County Hall of 
Fame.
  Congratulations to Coach Steve Smith, the football team, Piedmont 
City Schools and all their loyal fans.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing the 500th win by the 
Piedmont High School Football Team. Go Bulldogs.

                          ____________________
