                        Thursday, April 6, 2017

  Mr. LAWSON of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the 
Ribault High School Girls' Basketball Team. The Lady Trojans won their 
11th state championship title with a 60-37 win over Orlando Bishop 
Moore in the Class 5A championship game. Under the leadership and 
guidance of Head Coach Shelia Seymore-Pennick, the Lady Trojans are 
truly a force to be reckoned with.
  The Lady Trojans Basketball team is no stranger to winning. With a 
nearly perfect record for the season, with only a three-point loss, 
they make residents of Florida's Fifth Congressional District proud.
  As a former basketball player, I am excited to witness the success of 
such hardworking and dedicated young women. They are the true 
definition of a team and show these qualities both on and off the 
basketball court.
  I look forward to watching their future success in both their 
academic and athletic pursuits and wish them all the best in their 
future endeavors.
  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the Lady Trojans Girls' Basketball Team 
and Coach Shelia Seymore-Pennick on a job well done.
