               CONGRATULATING THE CALHOUN YELLOW JACKETS

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under a previous order of the House, the 
gentleman from Georgia (Mr. Gingrey) is recognized for 5 minutes.
  Mr. GINGREY of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I want to take this opportunity 
to congratulate the Calhoun Yellow Jackets for defeating Cook County 
High by a score of 8-2 in the deciding game to win the 2010 AA Georgia 
State baseball tournament. The Yellow Jackets clinched the series in 
game three with excellent pitching and three home runs.
  I would especially like to recognize Manager Chip Henderson and the 
Calhoun coaching staff for leading the Yellow Jackets to a remarkable 
35-1 record this season. Calhoun, Georgia, truly had a remarkable 
season, Mr. Speaker, dominating their opponents by scoring, believe 
this, 376 runs in just 33 games this season. That's an average of over 
10 runs per game, Mr. Speaker.
  I am extremely proud to represent Gordon County and Calhoun, Georgia, 
in the 11th Congressional District, and I couldn't be prouder of the 
Calhoun Yellow Jackets for capturing their fourth State championship 
title.
  Congratulations, Calhoun. Best of luck to all of the seniors who are 
graduating this year.
