      CONGRATULATIONS TO NORTH HOLLYWOOD HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL TEAM

  (Mr. CARDENAS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CARDENAS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the North 
Hollywood High School baseball team for winning their first CIF-Los 
Angeles City Division I championship by defeating the Banning High 
Pilots 3-1.
  In a competitive and nail-biting championship game, the Huskies 
overcame a 1-1 tie in the top of the eighth when second baseman Nick 
Park hit his second triple of the game and produced the winning run.
  The Huskies started the season losing six of their first seven games, 
yet they never gave up. They quickly turned things around and finished 
the season with a 20-13 record and earned the city title.
  What is more admirable is they succeeded without having their own 
field to practice or play on all season.
  I commend Head Coach Eder Tapia and assistant coaches Erik Morante 
and Daniel Campos for overcoming the on-and-off-the-field challenges as 
they developed remarkable student athletes and a winning team culture.
  We will be rooting for these young, bright men and wishing them all 
the best next season and beyond.
