IN RECOGNITION OF THE DUBLIN COFFMAN HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS TRACK AND FIELD 
                                  TEAM

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. PATRICK J. TIBERI

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 6, 2016

  Mr. TIBERI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Dublin Coffman 
High School for winning the Girls 4 200 Meter Relay at the Division I 
Ohio High School Track and Field State Championship.
  For over a century, the Ohio High School Athletic Association has 
provided Ohio's finest student athletes with the opportunity to earn a 
state championship. Each year young men and women spend countless hours 
practicing and training in an effort to join the ranks of Ohio's elite 
athletes. Although many strive to earn the title of state champion, 
only a select few will achieve this honor.
  Dublin Coffman's victory caps a tremendous season. This sort of 
achievement stands as a testament to their hard work. Shaunqueza 
Stevens, Shannon Downie, Wambui Watene, and Abby Steiner have set a new 
standard for future athletes to reach. Everyone at Dublin Coffman High 
School can be extremely proud of their performance.
  On behalf of the citizens of Ohio's 12th Congressional District, I 
congratulate Dublin Coffman High School's Girls Track and Field on 
their state championship. I wish their team continued success in their 
future athletic endeavors.
