     CONGRATULATING THE WOODBRIDGE HIGH SCHOOL JROTC ROBOTICS TEAM

  (Ms. SPANBERGER asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. SPANBERGER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Woodbridge 
High School JROTC robotics team, which is competing in the JROTC 
National Championship in Dallas.
  In its very first year of existence, this team has already earned an 
invitation to compete against teams across the country. After a season 
of climbing the rankings, quickly learning about the skills needed to 
win, and placing in statewide competitions, their hard work has paid 
off.
  Woodbridge High's team is the only JROTC VEX robotics team in the 
entire Commonwealth. Today, they are not only making Woodbridge proud, 
they are making all Virginians proud.
  These Virginia cadets overcame the odds. Their determination, their 
innovation, and their ability to rise above adversity make them fierce 
competitors, and it puts them on a pathway to success as future leaders 
of our communities, our Commonwealth, and our country.
  These results are a testament to Virginia's JROTC students, their 
instructors, and their parents.
  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the Vikings and wish them the best of 
luck at nationals.
