CONGRATULATING SPENCER ROBARGE ON HIS 2015 U.S. BOWLING CONGRESS JUNIOR 
                    GOLD CHAMPIONSHIP NATIONAL TITLE

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. BILLY LONG

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 16, 2015

  Mr. LONG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Spencer Robarge 
of Springfield, Missouri on winning the 2015 United States Bowling 
Congress Junior Gold Championship National Title for the 12-and-under 
class.
  Nearly 3,200 bowlers played in the 2015 Junior Gold Championships 
this year. Spencer outscored a rival from New York State, 390-332, to 
take the gold. He won his class' competition at age 12, about a decade 
after rolling his first bowling ball down the lane at age two. He 
walked away from the competition with not only a win, but ranked third 
nationally in the Under 12 boys scratch division. He has also won a 
prize at every tournament he has played to-date this year.
  Years of practice and experience has led him to out-bowl the 
competition and roll faster toward success. I have no doubt Spencer is 
a bowler to watch as he strikes his way to the top and toward the big 
leagues. I am proud to have young people with such bright futures in 
Missouri's Seventh District.
