                         Thursday, June 8, 2017

  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Dulles High 
School of Sugar Land, TX, for placing in the top 16 at the 2017 
National Science Bowl Competition hosted by the U.S. Department of 
Energy.
  The National Science Bowl is a prestigious academic competition that 
brings together thousands of middle and high school students from 
across the country. Students compete by solving technical problems and 
answering questions on a range of topics, such as biology, chemistry, 
earth and space science, physics and math. From January to March, 
regional elimination tournaments were held across the country. The top 
111 teams from the regional competitions earned the opportunity to 
compete at the National Science Bowl. Dulles High School made it to the 
top 16, winning $1000 for their school's science department. The team 
members included: Andrew Liu, Shree Mohan, Shreyas Balaji, Anish Patel, 
Abin Antony, Coach Judy Matney and Coach Chandra Mohan.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Dulles High School for earning a top 16 spot 
at the National Science Bowl. We're proud to have them represent TX-22 
and look forward to seeing their future accomplishments.
