Congresswoman Houchin Recognizes Silver Creek High School Baseball Team on House Floor
“Your countless hours of practice, preparation, and teamwork has finally paid off,” – Rep. Houchin.
WASHINGTON – Today, Congresswoman Erin Houchin (R-Ind.-09) recognizes Silver Creek High School’s baseball team for winning the Class 3A state title on the U.S. House Floor. Last month, the Sellersburg baseball team made history by winning the program’s first ever Class 3A state title.
“It is truly an honor and a privilege to recognize Silver Creek High School on the House floor. This is not only an impressive victory, but a testament to the guidance and leadership of Coach Joe Decker and his coaching staff who worked diligently to mold these young men not only into state champions, but future leaders. Coach Decker, I hope you enjoy your well-deserved retirement.
“Gentlemen, your countless hours of practice, preparation, and teamwork has finally paid off, and will, without a doubt, inspire future generations of players and coaches to strive for both excellence and good sportsmanship. You have made not only your school proud, but your entire community and your Congresswoman.
“Congratulations once again on your very first state championship win. I’m sure it won’t be your last,” said Congresswoman Houchin.
