                 CONGRATULATING THE ST. CROIX HELENITES

  (Ms. PLASKETT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. PLASKETT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate a group of 
exceptional young men from my home in the Virgin Islands for their 
division title win this past week in Minnesota during the USA CUP 
tournament, the largest youth soccer tournament in the Western 
Hemisphere.
  The St. Croix Helenites Sports Club under-16 squad played through the 
quarterfinals and semifinal rounds to clench the championship. The boys 
on the under-11 team also played with great heart and made it to the 
top four in their division.
  Our entire community is tremendously proud of our boys for their hard 
work, their great sportsmanship. The Virgin Islands is small, but when 
we show up, we show out, and we excel.
  We are all so proud of Head Coach Raejae Joseph, Assistant Coach Dale 
Richards, parents, young men, and my boy Nico.
  Let's go St. Croix Helenites Sports Club.
