     CONGRATULATING THE NORTH DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITY FOOTBALL TEAM

  (Mr. ARMSTRONG asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ARMSTRONG. Madam Speaker, the North Dakota State University 
football team brought home their record seventh FCS championship trophy 
in 8 years.
  On January 5, the Bison defeated the Eastern Washington Eagles, 38-
24. The Eagles are a good team and attempted several comebacks, but the 
Bison held strong for the win.
  Quarterback Easton Stick led the Bison with a spectacular 
performance. He had five touchdowns--two passing and three rushing--for 
a combined 319 yards.
  The Bison players were cheered on by 17,000 dedicated NDSU fans who 
traveled over 1,000 miles south to Frisco, Texas, for what has become 
an annual journey.
  Victory also sealed Coach Klieman's place in college football 
history. In his five seasons, he has coached the team to four national 
championships and just four conference losses.
  Madam Speaker, this incredible achievement is the result of months of 
hard work and preparation. Congratulations to all Bison players, 
coaches, and fans. They earned it.
