A TRIBUTE TO MICHAEL ZACHARY IN THE FIRST SESSION OF THE 114TH CONGRESS
______
HON. DAVID YOUNG
of iowa
in the house of representatives
Monday, March 2, 2015
Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and
congratulate Michael Zachary of Dowling Catholic High School for
winning the Class 3A 132 pound bracket at the Iowa High School State
Wrestling tournament on February 21, 2015.
Iowa has a long and proud history of strong wrestling programs in our
state, producing college and Olympic champions for years. Winning a
state championship is the culmination of years of hard work and
commitment, not only on the part of Mr. Zachary, but also his family,
teammates, and coaches.
Mr. Speaker, the example set by this student-athlete demonstrates the
rewards of hard work, dedication, and perseverance. I am honored to
represent Michael and his family in the United States Congress. I know
all of my colleagues in the House join me in congratulating Michael on
competing in this rigorous competition and wishing continued success in
his education and wrestling career.
