                        Thursday, June 22, 2017

  Mr. KATKO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the victory of the 
Liverpool Baseball Team in the New York State Public High School 
Association Class AA Championship on June 10, 2017. The Liverpool 
Warriors defeated the Massapequa Chiefs 4-1 to secure the Warriors' 
first title in program history.
  The Warriors, finishing the season 23-3, were determined to win the 
program's first state title. Members of the championship team include 
Nick Antonello, Peter Belgrader, Thomas Bianchi, Jordan Brown, Joel 
Ciccarelli, Jeff Destefano, Jake Evans, Brandon Exner, Jonah Harder, 
Andre Leatherwood, Devan Mederios, Gerard Mouton, Zach Pieklik, Matt 
Rioux, Nikolas Saunders, Zach Scannell, Zach Scharett, Jacob Sisto, 
Owen Valentine, and Joe Zywicki. The team is coached by Fred Terzini.
  I am honored to recognize the teamwork displayed by the Liverpool 
Warriors and to congratulate the members of the team, their families, 
the coaching staff, and teachers at Liverpool High School. This is a 
historic win for Central New York and I am confident that the positive 
experiences from the 2017 season will yield continued success in both 
athletics and academics.
