CONGRATULATING WEST HENDERSON HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL TEAM
(Mr. EDWARDS asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. EDWARDS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to extend my heartfelt
congratulations to the West Henderson High School baseball team for
winning the North Carolina High School Athletic Association's 3A State
championship.
This is West Henderson's first State championship baseball victory
since 1992. It stands as a testament to the team's unwavering
commitment, exceptional skill, and remarkable self-discipline and
teamwork.
Led by their esteemed coach, Jackie Corn, the West Henderson High
School baseball team's dedication and passion for the great American
pastime has inspired everyone in western North Carolina.
I thank Coach Corn, along with Assistant Coaches Ryan Anderson,
Anthony Lindsey, Jimmy Gash, and Chip Koontz, for leading West
Henderson High to this exciting victory.
In recognizing this achievement, we also honor the parents and
families who have helped these talented athletes to bring this prideful
moment to western North Carolina.
As a proud graduate of West Henderson High School myself, I rise to
say: Go Falcons.
