  Mr. VAN DREW. Mr. Speaker, today, I want to celebrate an act of 
exceptional sportsmanship witnessed at the Cape Atlantic Cross-Country 
Championships, highlighting the true

spirit of unity and compassion within our community. During the race, 
Cam Koryga, a star-runner from Egg Harbor Township High School 
encountered difficulties, stumbling and falling as he neared the finish 
line. In an inspiring act, Jamar Mack, a freshman on the Middle 
Township High School cross country team, came to his aid and guided him 
down the course, even though they were rival runners. Jamar's support 
for Cam continued throughout the race, and in a touching moment, Jamar 
allowed Cam to cross the finish line ahead of him. This act of 
sportsmanship is a shining example of the values we hold dear in our 
community--compassion, selflessness, and unity. It reminds us of the 
positive impact of sports beyond competition. It is my privilege to 
recognize and celebrate Jamar Mack's outstanding sportsmanship and I 
wish this exemplary young man all the best in his future. God Bless 
Jamar and God Bless the United States of America.
