                            HON. SANDY ADAMS

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, January 7, 2011

  Mrs. ADAMS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate the University 
of Central Florida on their historic victory over the Georgia Bulldogs 
on December 31, 2010 in the Liberty Bowl. The Knights edged out the 
Bulldogs 10-6 in a fantastic game that demonstrated what this young 
athletic program has to offer to the world of collegiate sports.
  This was UCF's first bowl game victory capping off an astonishing 
year of being ranked for the first time in school history in the top 25 
of the AP Poll, USA Today Coaches Poll, Harris Poll and finishing their 
season at number 25 in the BCS Standings. These achievements are a 
testament to the determination and strength of the young people that 
this university is turning out as the future leaders in our community 
and country.
  As the second largest university in the Nation, and my district's 
flagship university, UCF has been breaking barriers and earning its 
place at the top of every measure of student achievement, and this year 
was no exception. I offer my warmest congratulations to the players of 
this championship team, Coach O'Leary and the entire Administrative 
staff for all their determination and hard work.
