              HONORING THE WARTBURG COLLEGE WRESTLING TEAM

                                 ______
                                 

                             HON. ROD BLUM

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, March 19, 2018

  Mr. BLUM. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Wartburg College 
wrestling team for winning this year's NCAA Division III National 
Championship. Wartburg College is located in Waverly, Iowa and this is 
their third-straight title out of the fourteen they have won in NCAA 
National Championship history.
   These young men have sacrificed much of their lives to hold this 
title--spending more time in the gym and more time practicing to 
continue improving. Through their hard work, dedication, and sacrifice, 
they have made their family, friends, Wartburg College, and northeast 
Iowa proud.
   With that being said, Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the Wartburg 
College wrestling team, Coach Keller, Coach Ortner, and the Wartburg 
College community, on their well-deserved championship.
   Go Knights.
