                            HON. DAVID YOUNG

                        Tuesday, April 19, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Grant Stotts of Valley High School in West Des Moines, 
Iowa for winning the Class 3A, 132- pound bracket at the Iowa High 
School State Wrestling tournament on February 20, 2016.
  Iowa has a long and proud history of strong wrestling programs at all 
levels, producing collegiate and Olympic champions for decades. Winning 
a state championship is the culmination of years of hard work and 
commitment, not only on the part of Grant, but also his parents, his 
family and coaches.
  Mr. Speaker, the example set by Grant demonstrates the rewards of 
hard work, dedication, and perseverance. I am honored to represent him 
and his family in the United States Congress. I ask that all of my 
colleagues in the United States House of Representatives join me in 
congratulating Grant on winning this rigorous competition and wishing 
him continued success in his education and high school wrestling 
career.
