Monday, May 7, 2018
Mrs. BUSTOS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Rockford
Auburn High School Quiz Bowl Team for being ranked 16th on the list of
the top 100 quiz bowl teams in the world. The Rockford Auburn High
School team is advised by Coach Elizabeth Zorn and comprised of
students Ethan Strombeck, Morad Suliman, Lily Chavez, Leif Verace and
Kodai Speich.
Quiz bowl is a challenging academic competition, where high school
students are quizzed on a variety of subjects ranging from science and
literature to history and mathematics. I would like to commend the
Rockford Auburn High School students on all of their hard work this
year, and recognize the strong leadership of Coach Elizabeth Zorn.
Mr. Speaker, once again I would like to congratulate the Rockford
Auburn High School Quiz Bowl Team for being ranked one of the top 100
quiz bowl teams in the world. Their dedication to academic excellence
makes me especially proud to serve Illinois' 17th Congressional
District, and I wish them the best of luck in future competitions.
