 RECOGNIZING CADEN McCLURE AS OHIO'S 13th DISTRICT CHAMPION OF THE WEEK

  (Mrs. SYKES asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. SYKES. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Caden McClure as 
Ohio's 13th Congressional District Champion of the Week.
  Caden is a senior at Green High School, and he became the 2024 
Division 1 boys pole vaulting State champion at the State championship 
meet in Dayton this past weekend.
  Several pole vaulters at the meet attempted to jump 16 feet, but 
after three attempts, Caden was the only one to successfully clear this 
incredible jump to secure the State title.
  The win capped off a very successful season for senior Caden McClure 
as he is the fourth pole vaulter from Green High School to win the 
State title.
  He also continued his family's history of dominance in this event by 
winning this year's State title because he followed his brother, 
Connor, who set the Division I State pole vault record of 17 feet 3 
inches back in 2001.
  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate, once again, Caden McClure for this very 
impressive victory. He has made his

school, his family, and his community very proud, and I can't wait to 
see what he does next. He is the reason why Ohio's 13th Congressional 
District is the birthplace of champions.
