                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, June 9, 2022

  Mrs. BUSTOS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Alice Sotelo, a 
junior from Sterling High School who won the Illinois High School 
Association (IHSA) Class 2A State Triple Jump title.
  Alice won the 2A State Title in the triple jump with a final 
clearance distance of 11.36 meters, setting a new school record. It was 
also her fourth time setting a new school record in the last month. As 
a former athlete, I commend her for her determination and attitude. 
Alice is an example of the importance of dedication and a strong work 
ethic. I am proud to see her represent Sterling so well throughout the 
state and the country with her talent and passion.
  It is because of student leaders such as Alice that I am especially 
proud to serve Illinois' 17th Congressional District. Madam Speaker, I 
would like to again formally congratulate Alice Sotelo on her Class 2A 
State Title in the triple jump.
