  CONGRATULATING FRANCIS HOWELL SOFTBALL TEAM ON THEIR CLASS 5 STATE 
                              CHAMPIONSHIP

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. BLAINE LUETKEMEYER

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, November 2, 2023

  Mr. LUETKEMEYER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to ask my colleagues to 
join me in congratulating Francis Howell High School on their victory 
in Missouri's Class 5 Softball State Championship.
  The team claimed the Class 5 title for the first time and exacted a 
measure of revenge by beating the same team they lost to in last year's 
championship game. Senior Lorin Boutte led the way to an 8-0 victory by 
tossing a four-hit shutout and adding a grand slam for run support. The 
team 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 the Francis Howell 
softball team for a job well done.

                          ____________________
