              TRIBUTE TO DENTON HIGH SCHOOL'S LADY BRONCOS

  (Mr. BURGESS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, it turns out the third time was a charm for 
the women's soccer team of Denton High School in Denton, Texas. Mr. 
Speaker, I want today to recognize the Lady Broncos, Denton High 
School's women's soccer team, for winning their first State title this 
past Saturday.
  Freshman Ashley Hornisher scored the game-winning goal after 
receiving a corner kick from sophomore Lisa Stephens in order to win 
the Class A State championship.
  Coach Iseed Khoury, who led the Lady Broncos in a 28-2 season, said 
``This is the result of all the hard work our kids have put in over the 
years. We're a powerhouse now.''
  Denton senior Julie Naugher, a midfielder, was named the State 
tournament's Most Valuable Player. Ashley Wilson, a sophomore 
midfielder, sent a free kick from 40 yards out to Naugher in the box, 
who then headed the ball into the goal to tie the game in the first 
half.
  Mr. Speaker, I especially want to recognize the Denton Lady Bronco 
seniors: Erin Cadenhead, Jennifer Dower, Julie Naugher, Annie Lowe, 
Callie Lawing, JennMia Nilsson, Katherine Clark, Christine Hornisher, 
and Bente Bekkhus.
  I hope my colleagues will join me in honoring these fine young ladies 
and congratulating them on a season of hard work and commitment that 
paid off.
