      CONGRATULATING FAIRFIELD AREA HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS' SOCCER TEAM

  (Mr. PERRY asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. PERRY. Mr. Speaker, today I proudly honor my constituents, the 
Fairfield Area High School girls' soccer team, for earning the PIAA 1A 
championship. These young women have brought home the first State team 
sports title in Fairfield's history.
  The Green Knights defeated District 7 champion, Shady Side, in a 9-4 
victory, at Hersheypark Stadium, on November 18, 2016. The Green 
Knights finished the season with a 25-1 record and scored 27 goals in 
four State playoff games, including two nine-goal performances.
  For a team from a small community, the Green Knights had an army of 
loyal supporters.
  I extend my congratulations to the team, to the head coach, Phomma 
Phanhthy, and the school officials, family, and friends who supported 
these young women on this incredible journey. We are all so very proud 
of you.
