       CONGRATULATING SOLON HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY TEAM

  (Mrs. MILLER-MEEKS asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. MILLER-MEEKS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize a group 
of young women who have made history in a small town in my district.
  Last week, the Solon High School Girls Cross Country team defied the 
odds at the 3A Iowa State championship and brought home their first 
girls cross country title after upsetting last year's champion, Ballard 
High School.
  Led by top ten finishers, Kayla Young and Emma Bock, every Solon 
Spartan finished in the top 54 in a crowded 133-member field, earning a 
total score of 77 points.
  Congratulations to Kayla Young, Emma Bock, Anna Quillin, Meghan 
O'Neill, Mara Duster, Gracie Federspiel, and Kaia Holtkamp. This is a 
great achievement for both Solon and the Second District, and I could 
not be prouder to represent all of these young women in Congress.
