                         Monday, June 20, 2016

  Mrs. COMSTOCK. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize the girls' soccer 
team from Loudoun County High School in my District who recently won 
the 2016 4A Virginia State Championship. They practiced long hours as a 
team, and this extraordinary achievement shows how far dedication, hard 
work, and commitment to teamwork can take a group as they played 
against some of the best competition in the nation.
  This team has made Virginia's 10th Congressional District proud and 
they have represented us well. Winning a state championship attests to 
their impressive athletic ability,

unselfish mentality, and determination to succeed. I commend them for 
their tireless dedication to both their school and their teammates, 
without neither of which this could have been possible. It takes a 
delicate combination of superior skill and many hours of practice to 
win a state title. The Loudoun County High School girls' soccer team 
has certainly earned this honor and the lessons learned over the years 
will valuably serve them as they continue on in their lives.
  They outlasted Salem 1-0 to achieve the team's 2nd state title in as 
many years. The game's only goal was an impressive header directed into 
the goal following a long free kick. The teamwork these girls used to 
get to this moment was on display the entire game as they sprinted and 
dribbled to victory.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that my colleagues join me in honoring the Loudoun 
County High School girls' soccer team for their achievement and 
representing Virginia's 10th Congressional District with such 
distinction. I wish them all the best in their future endeavors.
