 HARLEM HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL FIELD NAMED AFTER LEGENDARY COACH JIMMIE 
                                 LEWIS

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. RICK W. ALLEN

                               of georgia

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, March 21, 2025

  Mr. ALLEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate legendary Coach 
Jimmie Lewis, whose name will now be displayed at the Harlem High 
School baseball field for years and years to come. Coach Lewis has been 
the dedicated leader of the Harlem High School baseball program for 
decades, securing eight state titles and over 900 impressive wins--the 
3rd highest in Georgia High School Association history. This is no 
small feat, and I cannot think of anyone more deserving of this honor.
  However, Jimmie Lewis is far more than a coach in this community and 
at Harlem High School. He is a family man, a role model, a teacher, and 
a molder of men who has devoted his life to ensuring young students 
learn the skills and lessons necessary to be successful not only on the 
baseball field, but in life.
  I am honored to help Coach Lewis celebrate this occasion and the 
positive, lifelong impact he has had on so many lives. Congratulations 
to Coach Lewis. Go Bulldogs.
