                       Wednesday, April 29, 2015

  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Ms. Donna Vacek 
on her long and successful career as head coach of the Lady Oilers, the 
Pearland girls' basketball team.
  With over 449 career wins and two regional tournament appearances, 
Ms. Vacek has coached the Lady Oilers to incredible victories over her 
29 year career. While she is still in her prime in coaching, Ms. Vacek 
opted to retire and spend time caring for her family. She is leaving a 
legacy of victory and determination that will continue to motivate the 
team in future tournaments.
  On behalf of the residents of the Twenty-Second Congressional 
District of Texas, congratulations again on your exemplary career as 
head coach of the Lady Oilers. We know that you will continue to set an 
example in excellence and compassion, and we thank you for leadership.
