HONORING 2018-2019 CHAMPIONS: HILLSIDE BASKETBALL ALL-STARS
(Mr. PAYNE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. PAYNE. Madam Speaker, it is my pleasure to commend the Hillside
Recreational Basketball All-Star teams for their incredible successes
this past season.
These young athletes and their coaches traveled all over the great
State of New Jersey to compete in the New Jersey Basketball Association
League.
The sixth and seventh grade athletes trained hard with their
dedicated coaches which resulted in both teams winning 14 games. The
teams then went on to win an additional four games during their
championships. The seventh grade team maintained their 2-year champion
streak.
These successes were accomplished thanks to each member's commitment
to teamwork that allowed them to reach the height of their potential.
Madam Speaker, I am proud to say congratulations to the Hillside
Basketball All-Stars.
