             CONGRATULATING MARSHALL ALL-STAR CHEERLEADERS

 Mr. BUNNING. Mr. President, today I would like to take the 
opportunity to honor the Marshall All-Star Cheerleaders for their 
recent success at the national championships in Indianapolis.
  The Marshall All-Star Cheerleaders is made up of girls from grades 1-
12 competing in three age levels, Peewee grades 1-4, Youth 3-6, and 
Senior 6-12. They are from Marshall, Graves, Lyon, and McCracken 
counties and students at Melissa's Gymnastics in Benton, KY.
  The squads spent hours in preparation for the fierce competition they 
faced in Indianapolis. Other squads were from Indiana, Kansas, 
Illinois, Missouri, Tennessee, Ohio, Michigan, West Virginia, Maryland, 
Iowa, Wisconsin, and Kentucky. They competed in dance, cheering, and 
tumbling, and came out on top in the end.
  The Marshall All-Star Cheerleaders were the national champions in all 
three age levels. They are to be commended for this high honor. Their

work and dedication paid off, and I join my fellow Kentuckians in 
congratulating these fine young ladies.
