                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, April 1, 2011

  Mr. BUCSHON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Washington 
High School Boys Basketball Team from Washington, Indiana. On March 26, 
2011, the Hatchets won the Indiana High School Athletic Association's 
Class 3A State Championship for the second consecutive year. Today, I 
would like to congratulate Coach Gene Miller and the young men for 
their success.
  The #1 ranked Hatchets finished their season with a record of 24 wins 
and only 4 losses where they achieved a 61 to 46 victory against Culver 
Academies in the state finals. I would also like commend Coach Mark 
Galloway and his team for reaching their first ever state championship 
game.
  This was the fourth state championship since 2005 for the Hatchets, 
who were led by McDonald's All American Cody Zeller. Mr. Zeller was 
also named the winner of the Arthur L. Trester Mental Attitude Award in 
Class 3A Boys Basketball.
  Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate the Hatchets of Washington 
High School for their hard work and dedication that culminated with 
their second consecutive Indiana High School Athletic Association's 
Boys Basketball Title.
