                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, July 17, 2023

  Mr. LUETKEMEYER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to ask my colleagues to 
join me in congratulating Columbia Independent's Scholar Bowl Team on 
their victory in Missouri's Scholar Bowl State Championship.
  Asher, Sophie, Elijah, Emily, and Graham conquered the tournament, 
averaging an impressive 150 points higher than their opponents in each 
round. As winners of the first team state championship in their 
school's history, the Lions should be commended for all their hard work 
throughout the past year and for bringing home the state championship 
to their school and community.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing Columbia Independent's 
Scholar Bowl Team for a job well done.
