                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, July 18, 2016

  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
Ware County High School Robotics Team for winning the world 
championship at the 2016 Vex World Robotics Championship in Louisville, 
Kentucky.
  The students of Ware County High submitted two robots into the 
tournament--2015C, known as C-Bot, and 2015A, known as A-Bot.
  Both robots performed extremely well in Louisville, in the qualifying 
rounds. C-Bot won 4th place in programming skills while A-Bot finished 
with a high ranking in technology skills. Each robot finished in the 
top 50 within their divisions.
  Because of its performance in the qualifying rounds, the C-Bot was 
chosen to be part of a small team to compete for the world title where 
it was allied with robots from Connecticut.
  This alliance won the final competition for the world championship.
  The world title is an impressive achievement as 500 teams from North 
and South America, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East competed for the 
prestigious honor.
  I rise today to congratulate the Ware County High students on their 
hard work and achievement as they bring world-wide recognition to their 
school and the First Congressional District of Georgia.
