               PENN KINGSMEN SOFTBALL 4A STATE CHAMPIONS

  (Mr. YAKYM asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. YAKYM. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the newest State 
champions to come out of Indiana's Second District.
  Last weekend, the Penn High School softball team won the 4A State 
Championship for the second time in school history. The return of State 
champs was 24 years in the making for the Lady Kingsmen.
  It wasn't easy. To take home the trophy, the Kingsmen first had to go 
through two-time defending champs Indianapolis Roncalli.
  With the score tied 1-1 going into extra innings, Head Coach Beth 
Zachary knew that her team was going to do whatever it took to pull out 
a win. That is exactly what the Kingsmen did, eventually prevailing 2-1 
after an exhilarating nine innings.
  Congratulations to Coach Zachary and all the Lady Kingsmen on your 
big win and an incredible season.
  Thank you for making Hoosiers and north central Indiana and beyond so 
incredibly proud.
  God bless you, and Go Kingsmen.
