 CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WAUSEON HIGH SCHOOL WRESTLING TEAM FOR WINNING 
                      THE OHIO STATE CHAMPIONSHIP

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. ROBERT E. LATTA

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, February 15, 2018

  Mr. LATTA. Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate the Ohio High School 
Athletic Association Division II Team Wrestling State Champion Wauseon 
Indians. After finishing runner up in 2016 and 2017, Wauseon topped 
Mentor Lake Catholic in the championship to capture the first team 
title of any sport in school history.
  Wauseon has a rich tradition in wrestling, winning the Northwest Ohio 
Athletic League twelve times. Under the tutelage of coach Mike Ritter, 
Wauseon was able to win the title by first going through Washington 
Court House and Canfield High School on the way to the finals.
  These student-athletes gave it their all, and the Wauseon community 
should be proud of them. Wrestling tests the mettle of its competitors, 
and it takes grit, determination, and toughness to compete at a high 
level. In addition to practice, student-athletes are asked to meet 
certain academic standards and exceed them as well. These competitors 
deserve our recognition.
  Once again, congratulations to Coach Mike Ritter and the rest of the 
Wauseon wrestling team on a job well done.

                          ____________________
