                        CONGRATULATIONS MURPHYS
                BORO MIDDLE SCHOOL GIRLS VOLLEYBALL TEAM

  (Mr. BOST asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BOST. Mr. Speaker, today I proudly honor the Murphysboro Middle 
School Blue Devils Girls volleyball team for winning the Class L State 
Championship for the second straight year.
  Along the way, the team also captured their eighth consecutive Junior 
Southwest Egyptian Conference title. That win was also a career 
milestone for Coach Mike Layne. It marked the 1,000th combined career 
win while coaching volleyball for Murphysboro Community Unit School 
District at both the middle school and high school levels.
  I extend a heartfelt congratulations to the players, coaching staff, 
school officials, family, and friends who supported these young ladies 
on their incredible journey. Southern Illinois is proud of you.
  Go, Blue Devils.
