                       Wednesday, April 30, 2014

  Mr. COFFMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Savannah 
Clemente, Jacob Johnson, Lucas Nicodemus, Luke Robinson, Nathan Teeter, 
and LeeAnn Wilson of Aurora, Colorado. Colorado was well represented by 
these Rangeview High School students at the 2014 CyberPatriot 
Competition National Finals in National Harbor, Maryland.
  CyberPatriot is the premier national youth cyber defense competition 
that teaches high school and middle school students about cyber-safety 
and how to defend computer systems against cyberattack. It also teaches 
students about internships and careers in cybersecurity and other 
opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
  The Rangeview High School CyberPatriot team distinguished itself from 
the rest of the competing teams by demonstrating outstanding skills in 
three rigorous rounds of competition against their peers. Out of 1,500 
competing teams, only 28 made it to the final competition where 
national championship trophies and scholarships were awarded. The 
Rangeview team won First Place in the Digital Crime Scene Challenge 
sponsored by the U.S. Cyber Crime Conference.
  The Rangeview High School CyberPatriot students will undoubtedly go 
on to serve as innovative leaders in our country. Their fierce 
dedication to the STEM disciplines is critical to our nation's future. 
Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to recognize the Rangeview High School 
CyberPatriot students for their achievement of competing in the 2014 
CyberPatfiot Competition National Finals.
