   CONGRATULATING THE NESHANNOCK HIGH LANCERS AND KNOCH HIGH KNIGHTS 
               PENNSYLVANIA STATE CHAMPION BASEBALL TEAMS

  (Mr. KELLY of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. KELLY of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, it is my great pleasure to 
congratulate not one, but two Pennsylvania State champion baseball 
teams from the Third Congressional District. The Neshannock High 
Lancers and Knoch High Knights capped off historic seasons last week to 
take home the PIAA Class AA and AAA baseball championships.
  It was the Lancers' second baseball State title in school history and 
the first State title in any sport for the Knoch Knights.
  It takes a lot of special people and a lot of hard work to mold a 
champion, so I offer a sincere thank you to the players, to their 
families, and to Lancer Coach Mike Kirkwood and Knight Coach George 
Bradley for not bringing just a championship to your communities, but 
just as importantly, the pride that comes with it.
  Last week, your baseball teams earned a special place in the long and 
storied history of western Pennsylvania student athletics. Because of 
it, I am very proud to say: Go Lancers, and go Knights.
