GO BENSALEM HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL TEAM
(Mr. FITZPATRICK asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute.)
Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, last night, we had our annual
Congressional Baseball Game and some healthy competition with our
colleagues. But today is the big showdown, when the Bensalem High
School baseball team will play for the State championship versus Canon-
McMillan at Penn State's Medlar Field at Lubrano Park.
Led by Coach Harry Daut, Bensalem beat La Salle in a come-from-behind
victory in the semifinals, initially down three runs with only two at
bats remaining. This come-from-behind victory was propelled by Nick
Fossile's sacrifice fly to left field, sending home Dave Barnett from
third base. That left it up to pitcher Nick Dean, who closed out the
game and finished what starter Stephen Aldrich began.
I wish these players, the entire team, the entire coaching staff, and
the entire Bensalem community the best of luck today, and I know they
will make all of us proud. Go Bensalem.
