     CONGRATULATING CUMBERLAND COUNTY COLLEGE ON NATIONAL BASEBALL 
                              CHAMPIONSHIP

  (Mr. VAN DREW asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. VAN DREW. Mr. Speaker, last Wednesday, the south Jersey 
Cumberland County College baseball team beat their rivals 11-7, winning 
the National Junior College Athletic Association Division 3 World 
Series championship. This achievement is the first national 
championship win in any sport in Cumberland County in south Jersey.
  The team's coach, Keith Gorman, attributed their success to their 
impressive pitching staff and tough defense.
  He also pointed to the importance of their values. Not only does the 
Cumberland County baseball team value toughness, but they also focus on 
selflessness. The diversity of Cumberland County has been represented 
in their team and has contributed to their success.
  Baseball is incredibly important to the community of Cumberland 
County, and its college team reflects the values that the south Jersey 
community holds: selflessness and togetherness.
  I am very proud of the hard work of these young men and wish them 
luck in the future.
