  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the Pearland 
High School cheerleading team for placing third overall in the 
University Interscholastic League (UIL) State Competition.
  Spirit, the UIL State Cheerleading Competition, is an extension of 
the typical high school cheerleading role, enhancing school spirit. 
This highly competitive UIL competition consists of three different 
categories: fight song, time out band dance, and time out cheer. 
Pearland High School competed in the UIL State Competition in the Class 
6A division where the Pearland Oilers placed third overall, how 
impressive. We are so proud of our Pearland Cheerleaders and we can't 
wait to see what the future competitions bring.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to the Pearland High School Cheerleaders for 
placing third in the UIL State Competition. Keep up the hard work.
