                         Friday, April 8, 2011

  Mr. MILLER of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize the Aletheia 
Christian Academy's Boys Basketball team as Champions of the National 
Association of Christian Athletes Division IV.
  Aletheia Christian Academy is a small school, with a total enrollment 
of 55 students. While they may be small in number, throughout the 
course of the tournament, they showed their opponents that hard work, 
dedication and solid fundamental basketball leads to success.
  Along the way, Aletheia Christian Academy faced opponents from larger 
schools in metropolitan areas. In the semifinals they faced Arthur-
Okaw, a perennial powerhouse and 14 time national champion from 
Chicago. Aletheia's victory in the championship game, against Hamilton 
Heights, was the school's first National Championship, in its 19th year 
of existence.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the United States Congress, I am privileged 
to congratulate the players, coaches, students, faculty and staff at 
Aletheia Christian Academy. I am certain that this impressive victory 
will remain a cherished moment in each of their lives.
