  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Valerie Valerian 
of Richmond, TX, for being selected for the Texas Girls Coaching 
Association volleyball all-state.
  The George Ranch senior was selected for all-state after leading her 
team, the Lady Longhorns, to a playoff victory. Throughout the 
playoffs, Valerie had a team-best of 564 kills while hitting .343 and 
leading with 4.1 digs per set. Following the playoffs, Valerie was also 
awarded the District 23-6A Offensive MVP and was selected as Player of 
the Match for over 20 volleyball games over the last two seasons.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Valerie Valerian for being selected for 
volleyball all-state. We are proud of her talent and know she will 
represent TX-22 well at all-state.
