                        Wednesday, May 12, 2021

  Mrs. HARTZLER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the players, 
coaches, and student managers of the Glasgow High School Boys 
Basketball Program who were recently enshrined in the Missouri Sports 
Hall of Fame.
  This small Howard County community in Missouri's 4th Congressional 
District has produced one of the most successful basketball programs in 
state history . . . with the Yellowjackets advancing to 16 Final Fours 
and earning Class 1 State championships in 1974, 1978, and again in 
1980. In addition, this roundball powerhouse has won 37 district titles 
and 28 conference championships.
  The 1986 movie ``Hoosiers'' told the story of a basketball team from 
a small Indiana town as it earned glory against all odds. It could 
easily be the story of the Glasgow High School basketball team--a small 
town team with a tremendous record of success. Congratulations to 
Glasgow High School's Boys Basketball Program on entering the Missouri 
Sports Hall of Fame.
