                          Friday, May 9, 2003

  Ms. GINNY BROWN-WAITE of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to 
congratulate the Crystal River Middle School Cheerleaders, from my 
Fifth Congressional District of Florida, for winning the national 
championship in their division at a competition held in Orlando last 
month.
  The competition hosted more than 200 cheerleading squads from across 
the nation and truly was a venue for the best of the best to showcase 
their talents.
  These seventh and eighth grade girls captured the top honors in the 
small school division and brought to Citrus County the first national 
championship trophy of any school, in any sport--ever.
  The squad of 14 girls, led by Head Coach Irene Hupp and Assistant 
Coach Terry Yant, has made the city of Crystal River, all of Citrus 
County and the entire state of Florida very proud. I am immensely proud 
of them as well.
  Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to honor Amanda Bass, Marlana Camden, 
Tiffany Daniel, Nicole Davis, Katie Dicks, Sabrina Gonzales, Brittany 
Jones, Amber Lunginsland, Amanda Mayor, Alyssa Parker, Hailey Roberts, 
Jilica Smith, Jacke Vivian, and Kylee Zarro.
  They have accomplished a remarkable feat and deserve every accolade 
sent their way. I am proud to honor them before this body this evening 
and am proud to have such motivated hard working young people call my 
district home.
