  Mr. LATTA. Madam Speaker, it is with a great deal of pride that I 
rise to pay a very special tribute to an outstanding high school 
wrestler in Ohio's Fifth Congressional District. Joey Blaze, a junior 
at Perrysburg High School, has represented his school ably on his way 
to achieving his second Division I State Wrestling Title. Joey overcame 
the challenges posed by intense competition in his effort to win the 
Division I State Wrestling Championship.
  In pursuing the State Championship, Joey Blaze defeated his opponent 
in the finals of the 144-pound classification. His hard work and 
dedication, both on and off the mat, in achieving this accomplishment 
is truly outstanding. Joey led his team to rank second place overall in 
the championship. He has achieved an impressive season record bringing 
pride to his school and community.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in paying special 
tribute to Joey Blaze of Perrysburg High School. On behalf of the 
people of the Fifth District of Ohio, I am proud to recognize this 
great achievement.

                          ____________________
