CONGRATULATING BREVARD HIGH SCHOOL VOLLEYBALL TEAM
(Mr. EDWARDS asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. EDWARDS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the Brevard
High School volleyball team for winning the 2A volleyball State
championship for North Carolina for the first time in their school's
history.
The Brevard Blue Devils dominated Saturday's championship game in a
3-0 win against Camden County High School.
As a former high school athlete myself, I recognize the sacrifices
and dedication that go into making this type of victory happen.
Senior and star middle hitter Meleah Foster, with her numerous kills
and blocks, was named MVP of the State finals.
The Blue Devils have outstanding individual players, but what sets
them apart is their unity as a team. Each and every member contributed
to this historic victory.
Madam Speaker, I congratulate the Blue Devils. I wish all of them the
very best in their future endeavors and encourage them to continue to
strive for excellence on and off the court. They have made western
North Carolina proud.
