 ========================= END NOTE ========================= 


  (Mr. JACK asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. JACK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the dawn of a new 
college football rivalry in the great State of Georgia: the clash of 
Highway 29 between the LaGrange College Panthers and the Point 
University Skyhawks.
  On Saturday, September 6, these two incredible institutions will meet 
on the gridiron for the very first time. Both schools call Troup County 
home, right in the heart of Georgia's Third Congressional District and 
less than 1 hour away from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International 
Airport.
  Founded in 1831, LaGrange College is the oldest private college in 
Georgia, and its vision is to be an innovative institution, 
holistically educating students to connect with and contribute to an 
ever-changing world.
  Competing in NCAA Division III, its athletic program has won national 
and conference championships in baseball, basketball, golf, soccer, and 
softball, instilling excellence and pride across generations of 
Panthers.
  Point University was originally founded as Atlanta Christian College 
in 1937, and its mission is to educate and equip students for Christ-
centered service and leadership throughout the world.
  For three consecutive years, Point has been recognized as an NAIA 
Champion of Character Five-Star Institution, a designation that honors 
their commitment to integrity, respect, and servant leadership.
  Mr. Speaker, I am proud to recognize the newest college football 
rivalry in the great State of Georgia, and I encourage you and all of 
my colleagues to tune in on Saturday night and watch the clash of 
Highway 29 between the LaGrange College Panthers and the Point 
University Skyhawks.
