  Mr. JENKINS of West Virginia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
the players and coaching staff of the St. Joseph Central Catholic High 
School men's basketball team in Huntington, West Virginia, for winning 
the West Virginia Class A men's basketball championship on March 19.
  Lead by Head Coach Ross Scaggs, the Irish completed an amazing run in 
the state tournament with a thrilling 67-65 overtime win over Wheeling 
Central Catholic. This is a remarkable accomplishment for St. Joseph 
Central in its first state tournament appearance since 1989. I would 
also like to recognize the parents, teachers and others that 
volunteered their time to help achieve this remarkable honor.
  Congratulations and Go Irish.
