   CELEBRATING BISHOP GUILFOYLE CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL FOR ITS SECOND 
          CONSECUTIVE PIAA CLASS A STATE FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BILL SHUSTER

                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, January 8, 2016

  Mr. SHUSTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the 2015 
Bishop Guilfoyle Catholic High School football team for earning its 
second consecutive PIAA Class A state football championship.
  Adding to its inspiring accomplishments from last season, this 
dedicated Marauder team, led by Coach Justin Wheeler, finished this 
season with a perfect 16-0 record. Even more impressive, that brings 
their winning streak to 32 straight games over two seasons.
  By handily winning another PIAA Class A football championship this 
year, the team has even made regional football history by not only 
making it to the big game in back-to-back years but also winning it. 
What's more, winning more than one state football championship is 
something that no other team in the region can claim.
  While these many notable achievements are worth highlighting, I also 
believe it's worth pointing out the humility and work ethic that 
accompanied them. Through their efforts, the Bishop Guilfoyle football 
team's players and coaches have displayed character and commitment 
worth recognizing. This team's continued success is surely another 
reason to be proud of where we're from.
  Today I am honored to recognize the 2015 Bishop Guilfoyle football 
team for another state championship victory and its continuously 
growing list of accomplishments. I am proud of how this team has 
represented Central Pennsylvania and I speak for many when I say I look 
forward to seeing what the future holds for this program.
