                        Thursday, March 1, 2018

  Mrs. BUSTOS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Ian Kuehl, a 
student from Lena-Winslow High School, for earning the Class 1 A 
wrestling title for the Illinois State Championship in the 285lb weight 
class.
  Ian Kuehl pinned his opponent in 3 minutes 25 seconds to claim his 
title as state champion, and I would like to recognize Ian for his 
tremendous accomplishment. Ian's dedication and passion for his sport 
meant that he was determined to win gold. As a former athlete, I 
understand the amount of hard work and commitment that goes into being 
awarded such a title. Ian's title demonstrates the value of dedication 
and a strong work ethic. I am proud there is such young talent in our 
community, and to see him represent Lena throughout the state.
  Mr. Speaker, I would like to again formally congratulate Ian Kuehl on 
his title, and I join the rest of the community in wishing him every 
success in the future.
