  Mr. TIBERI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Thomas 
Worthington High School Girls Field Hockey Team for winning the Ohio 
State Field Hockey Tournament.
   An achievement such as this certainly deserves recognition. The Ohio 
High School Athletic Association has enabled talented teams and 
individuals to earn state titles since its founding in 1907. Throughout 
this time, the

champions of OHSAA state level competitions have represented the 
highest achieving and most talented athletes in Ohio. Each year these 
elite competitors join the long ranks of those who embody Ohio's proud 
history of athletic success.
   The Thomas Worthington Girls Field Hockey Team's victory caps a 
tremendous season. This sort of achievement is earned only through many 
hours of practice, perspiration and hard work. They have set a new 
standard for future athletes to reach. Everyone at Thomas Worthington 
High School can be extremely proud of their performance.
   On behalf of the citizens of Ohio's 12th Congressional District, I 
congratulate the Thomas Worthington Field Hockey Team on their state 
championship. I wish them continued success in both athletic and 
academic endeavors.
