                   CHEROKEE TRAIL BOY'S BASEBALL TEAM

  (Mr. COFFMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. COFFMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the boys baseball 
team of Cherokee Trail High School on winning the 2016 Colorado 5A 
State championship game on May 29, 2016.
  The students and staff who were part of the title-winning Cougar team 
deserve to be honored for winning the State championship for the first 
time since they won the 4A State championship in 2007. The Cougars beat 
Rocky Mountain High School 5-1 in the series, and ended the season with 
a winning 25-5 record.
  Throughout the season, the boys of Cherokee Trail baseball team were 
dedicated, worked hard, and persevered. These traits were a key factor 
in their endeavor to win the championship. But winning would not have 
been possible without the tireless leadership of their head coach, 
Allan Dyer, and his commendable staff.
  It is with great pride that I join all of the residents of Aurora, 
Colorado, in congratulating the Cherokee Trail Cougars on their State 
championship.
