   CONGRATULATING TRINIDAD CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BOB SCHAFFER

                              of colorado

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 24, 1999

  Mr. SCHAFFER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Trinidad 
Catholic High School Girls basketball team on their Class A District 6 
Championship. The Trinidad Catholic players, led by Coach Mike 
Vecellio, made their families and community proud in their achievement.
  All teams, no matter what the sport, continually strive to find that 
special and unique combination of teamwork, leadership, skill and 
effort which unlocks the door to success. Under careful tutelage, hard-
working teams not only win games, but also build the confidence 
necessary to win championships. Clearly, these dedicated hoopsters have 
found this winning formula and attained the next rung of sporting 
success.
  May the Trinidad Catholic High School girls team rise to next year's 
challenge and find themselves the winner of the Colorado Class A State 
Championship. No matter what the outcome of next season, this team has 
proven it has the heart of a champion, and can take pride in the 
District 6 Championship.
