         CONGRATULATING PULLMAN HIGH SCHOOL'S SCIENCE BOWL TEAM

  (Mr. BAUMGARTNER asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BAUMGARTNER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate the Pullman High School's science bowl team for their 
outstanding performance in the U.S. Department of Energy's National 
Science Bowl held in Washington, D.C., on April 28.
  Representing eastern Washington, these exceptional students, Sahil 
Ganjyal, Jack Carper, Leon Liu, Kevin Chi, and Nathan Kostenko, earned 
their spot at nationals by winning the Inland Northwest Regional 
Science Bowl this spring.
  At the competition, they joined 63 of their top high school teams 
from across the country to compete in one of the most prestigious 
science competitions in the Nation. This team from Pullman not only 
showcased their talent on the national stage, but they reminded us why 
it matters to invest in STEM education and to recognize young people 
who are willing to push themselves, think deeply, and work together in 
the pursuit of excellence.
  They have made their fellow Pullman Greyhounds proud, including 
myself, which includes their families and all of eastern Washington. I 
offer my heartfelt congratulations and encourage them to keep reaching 
higher. Their future and ours is bright.
