                       Tuesday, February 28, 2012

  Mr. LANCE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Hunterdon 
Central Regional High School Varsity Cheerleading Squad for winning the 
2012 Universal Cheerleaders Association High School National 
Championship. After a week of competition in Orlando, Florida, this 
talented group of young women defeated the defending national champions 
to become the first team from Hunterdon Central Regional High School to 
bring home a national championship title.
   Last year the team took second place, but the squad returned 
motivated this year to take home the championship. Supporters, friends 
and family refer to the winning performance as ``The Perfect Routine.'' 
I congratulate Superintendent Christina Steffner, Principal Tim 
O'Brien, Head Coach Heather Buterbaugh and Assistant Coach Julie 
Strober for their hard work and dedication to the team. This marks 
another proud accomplishment for the Hunterdon Central Regional High 
School Athletics Department.
  These talented young women should be proud of their hard work and I 
congratulate them on the outstanding achievement of bringing their 
``Perfect Routine'' to the national stage.
