           CONGRATULATING LIBERTY UNIVERSITY FLAMES FOOTBALL

  (Mr. GOOD of Virginia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. GOOD of Virginia. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
outstanding accomplishments of the Liberty University Football Team.
  On November 25, my alma mater and hometown team earned their 12th 
straight victory and secured the first undefeated regular season in the 
program's 50-year history.
  Led by new head coach Jamey Chadwell, the Flames set a new school

record and became the first FBS football team in Virginia history to 
win 12 games.
  As an alum, former student-athlete, parent of three graduates, and a 
former employee in the Liberty University Athletic Department, I am 
incredibly proud of this team.
  The Flames' 12-0 record and current number 20 national ranking 
reflects the discipline, commitment, and work ethic of these talented 
young men.
  Their individual sacrifice, unselfishness, and willingness to play 
for one another and give everything for a cause bigger than themselves 
has placed them in tonight's Conference USA Championship game, after 
which they will have the opportunity to play in a prestigious bowl 
game.
  Madam Speaker, I congratulate the Liberty Flames on their historic 
season, and I am honored to represent them in Virginia's Fifth 
Congressional District.
