                      Thursday, September 28, 2017

  Mr. LONG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the Bolivar High 
School Fishing Team and their recent victory in the National Youth 
Fishing Association (NYFA) South Division Championship.
  Bolivar High School anglers, Andrew Johnson and John Hubbert, emerged 
as champions of the high school division on Sunday, July 16, 2017.
  Taking place at the Pomme de Terre Lake, the NYFA South Division 
event brought 290 high school and middle school teams to southern 
Missouri where the anglers from Bolivar took first place. John and 
Andrew not only brought home a trophy but $2,000 worth of scholarship 
money as well.
  I am honored to both recognize and congratulate Andrew and John, 
along with the Bolivar High School Fishing Team, on this terrific 
achievement. On behalf of Missouri's 7th Congressional District, I ask 
all of my colleagues to join me in congratulating this team and these 
two individuals on their outstanding achievements.

                          ____________________
