CONGRATULATING THE LENA-WINSLOW HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAM FOR WINNING
THE CLASS 1A IHSA STATE CHAMPIONSHIP
______
HON. CHERI BUSTOS
of illinois
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, January 11, 2022
Mrs. BUSTOS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the Lena-
Winslow High School football team for winning the IHSA State
Championship for football.
The Lena-Winslow Panthers beat the Carrollton Hawks 38-25 in the
championship game of the IHSA Class 1A football playoffs. The Panthers
added 2021 to their state championship titles of 2019, 2017, 2013, and
2010, making them five-time champions. Running back Marey Roby finished
with 241 rushing yards and three touchdowns, leading the team to their
5th win. I am pleased to see the Lena-Winslow Panthers representing the
Lena community state-wide and I congratulate them on their win at the
state championship.
It is because of leaders such as the Lena-Winslow Panthers that I am
especially proud to serve Illinois' 17th Congressional District. Madam
Speaker, I would like to again formally congratulate the Lena-Winslow
football team on its win at the Class 1A IHSA State Championship for
football.
