  Mr. CAMP. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Michigan's new 
girl's highschool volleyball State Champions, the New Lothrop Hornets.
  At the start of a long and challenging season, New Lothrop's girl's 
volleyball team set out to achieve their goal of being the best. They 
believed in themselves and knew that with their heart, drive and 
tremendous teamwork the state championship was within their grasp. With 
the support of their fans and the community these athletes fought a 
hard battle, never once doubting their amazing ability. With their 
motto ``Together we can,'' the women exemplified teamwork. Their 
combining passion for victory made them unstoppable.
  At the recent championship match, the Hornets proved victorious and 
their coach Sheri Warner hoisted the championship trophy for their 
fans. This tremendous victory was well deserved. They have lead their 
community to new athletic heights and have become wonderful examples of 
good sportsman. They may now pride themselves not only with the 
spectacular honor of being Michigan's top women's volleyball team, but 
also carrying the title of New Lothrop's first prep volleyball 
champions.

  Mr. Speaker, please join me and the New Lothrop community in 
congratulating these women on their excellent talents and leadership 
skills.
