  Mr. WALSH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in tribute to Fayetteville-
Manlius High School's Science Olympiad Team which won first place in 
the national Science Olympiad Tournament.
  The team won the regional and the New York State competitions to 
qualify for the national level where they competed against 53 other 
teams from the United States. At the tournament, there were 23 events 
related to science with medals given to the top five winners in each 
event. The Fayetteville-Manlius team brought home four Gold medals, 
five Silvers, one Bronze, one 4th place and two 5th places from the 
national competition, a truly exceptional accomplishment.
  The Fayetteville-Manlius team is comprised of 15 members and coached 
by Jamie Cucinotta. Team captain Jeff Izant led Brian Bayes, Christine 
Chin, Mary Collins, Grayson Fahrner, Leyla Isik, David Marsh, Jordan 
Mandel, Samiksha Nayak, Shriddha Nayak, Sarah Rahaman, Zaki Rahaman, 
Brian Stoeckel, Biance Verma, and Nora Ward in representing 
Fayetteville-Manlius so successfully at the tournament.
  I would like to express my congratulations to the team for such an 
outstanding achievement and wish them luck in all their future 
endeavors.
