                       TARLETON STATE RODEO TEAM

  (Mr. WILLIAMS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. WILLIAMS. Mr. Speaker, today I want to take a moment to recognize 
the Tarleton State University Rodeo Team located in Stephenville, 
Texas.
  Now, if you have never been to a Texas rodeo, I can promise you, it 
isn't like anything you have ever seen before. There is nothing quite 
like it and, frankly, there is nothing more Texan.
  Day in and day out, the young men and women on the Tarleton State 
Rodeo Team are dedicated and give 100 percent, no matter what. In fact, 
this summer, because of their hard work, the men's team finished second 
at the College National Finals Rodeo.
  However, this was not an isolated accomplishment. The Tarleton Rodeo 
Association has been part of a winning tradition since 1947. They have 
won seven national championship titles and 27 individual national 
championships.
  Mr. Speaker, because of all of this, the Tarleton State Rodeo Team is 
the best in Texas and one of the best in the Nation.
  I am proud to represent these champions in the 25th Congressional 
District, and I look forward to watching them continue to dominate the 
competition.
  In God we trust.
