  Mr. JOHNSON of South Dakota. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to 
congratulate the South Dakota State University Jackrabbits football 
team for their win in the Division I National Championship Subdivision 
Championship game in Frisco, Texas. SDSU defeated the North Dakota 
State University Bison by a score of 45 to 21.
  This season, the SDSU Jackrabbits finished with an overall record of 
14 wins and 1 loss. The Jackrabbits have qualified for the Football 
Championship Subdivision Playoffs the past 11 seasons. Mr. Speaker, 
this is a huge accomplishment for the Jackrabbits and truly exemplifies 
all their hard work.
  Today I also rise to congratulate Coach John Stiegelmeier on his 
retirement after 26 seasons as the head coach. I commend Coach 
Stiegelmeier for his dedication and service to the SDSU football 
program.
