| record in the three-team competition between Army, Navy and Air Force.
I am proud to say this is the fourth year in a row the Air Force
Academy has captured the trophy and they have won 10 of the last 12
seasons.
The most important aspect of the 2000 Air Force Academy Football Team
is each athlete on this team is a student first, and an athlete second.
They play the game of football not to become an NFL star one day, but
because they the game of football.
Their leader is a modest southern gentleman named Fisher DeBerry
whose life is driven not by football, but by his Christian faith and
his family. In his 17 seasons as head football coach at the Air Force
Academy he has guided his teams to an overall record of 135-72-1. He
has won more football games than any other coach in service academy
history and has taken the ``fighting falcons to an amazing 11 bowl
games. In 1996, he served as president of the prestigious American
Football Coaches Association.

The show was held at the US Naval Academy on Friday night, October 5th.
The competition is always the weekend of the Air Force-Navy football game,
as thats when 2 of the 3 competing corps will be in the same place. Coast
Guard usually makes the trip down to Annapolis, but when its out at
USAFA, its usually just Navy and Air Force. Coast Guard did make the trip
out to Colorado Springs last year (the first time I believe). |
| Mr. ALLARD. Mr. President, I rise today to recognize the
accomplishments of the 1998 United States Air Force Academy Football
Team.
The 1998 ``Falcons may go down in history as one of the greatest
football teams in Academy history. Their 12-1 record included their
first outright Western Athletic Conference Championship, a bowl victory
over the University of Washington, and the Commander-in-Chiefs Trophy,
which is the most prized possession of the three service academies.
This team of over-achieving young men was lead by their Head Football
Coach Fisher DeBerry, and his assistant coaches Richard Bell, Todd
Bynum, Dee Dowis, Enga, Larry Fedora, Jimmy Hawkins, Jeff Hayes,
Cal McCombs, Tom Miller, Bob Noblitt, Jappy Oliver, Chuck Peterson, and
Sammy Steinmark. They are recognized as one of the finest coaching
staffs in the country.
On offense, the team was lead by seniors Mike Barron, Joe Cashman,
Spanky Gilliam, Ryan Hill, Frank Mindrup, Blane Morgan, James Nate,
Dyla. |

| The Air Force felt victory could be achieved also by not
showing up. Secret plans were later leaked to the press that the Air
Force had spent $39.7 billion on a system able to fire the football
into the end zone from space. |
