CONGRATULATING FOUR-TIME STATE CHAMPIONS RILEY RAMBO AND TAYLOR LYCKMAN

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. K. MICHAEL CONAWAY

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, August 1, 2014

  Mr. CONAWAY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Riley Rambo 
and Taylor Lyckman from Menard, Texas on their historic 1A Mixed 
Doubles Tennis State Championship, on April 30th--a noteworthy 
accomplishment in and of itself.
   While any state championship is impressive, this duo made U-I-L 
history by being the first mixed doubles team to win the title four 
years running.
   Over the course of their high school careers, they have exemplified 
hard work, perseverance, and tenacity; and have become hometown heroes 
because of it. They are role models inspiring the younger generations 
of Menard.
   Riley and Taylor are not your normal doubles team. They are not just 
teammates or friends; they are cousins. They are family. They have 
grown up together, competed together, and won together. I can only 
imagine the overwhelming excitement and pride their entire family feels 
from this accomplishment. I encourage them to savor their historic feat 
and wish them all the best in their bright futures.
   Again, I congratulate Mr. Rambo and Ms. Lyckman on their historic 
fourth Mixed Doubles Tennis State Championship title.
