           RECOGNIZING THE RICHMOND HIGH SCHOOL SOFTBALL TEAM

  (Mrs. McCLAIN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mrs. McCLAIN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Richmond 
High School softball team, the Division 3 State champions.
  As you know, softball, especially girls softball, has been very near 
and dear to my heart.
  The Richmond girls persevered through a hard-fought championship game 
against Buchanan, including being down 1 to 0 going into the sixth 
inning.
  After losing two of their first three games, the Richmond girls 
showed that they would not give up on their team and ended their season 
on a 22-game win streak.
  With everything that these students have had to fight through this 
year, softball has been their rock. They continued to fight to prove 
that no matter what adversity was in front of them, they would overcome 
it.
  We are all so proud of you. Congratulations Richmond girls softball 
team.
  Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Unionville-Sebewaing High 
School's softball team, the back-to-back Division 4 State champs.
  The girls of Unionville-Sebewaing, also known as U-S-A, proved to the 
entire State of Michigan that they remain at the top of Division 4 with 
their 14-1 victory over Rudyard.
  Congratulations.
