      HONORING THE UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI BEARCATS FOOTBALL TEAM

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. STEVE DRIEHAUS

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, April 14, 2010

  Mr. DRIEHAUS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the University of 
Cincinnati Bearcats football team and congratulate them on their 
historic achievements in the 2009 season. In addition to winning a 
school-record 12 games, UC won its second straight Big East football 
title. The Bearcats finished the regular season fourth in the nation in 
both the USA Today and the Associated Press polls with an undefeated 
record. UC also played in the 2010 Sugar Bowl, its second consecutive 
Bowl Championship Series game. In addition, the football team and the 
university community ``adopted'' and embraced a 12-year-old cancer 
patient named Mitch Stone through Friends of Jaclyn, a foundation that 
links youngsters with brain tumors to college and high school sports 
teams. Today, Mitch is cancer-free.
  I am proud to recognize Mitch Stone and the University of Cincinnati 
Bearcats football team, its coaches, and UC President Gregory H. 
Williams for their 2009 football season, and recognize the students, 
faculty, and leadership for their record-setting support for UC's most 
successful season in history.
