                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. CHERI BUSTOS

                              of illinois

                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, May 1, 2020

  Mrs. BUSTOS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Nolan Throne, a 
senior from Rockridge High School, who won the Illinois High School 
Association's Class 1A State Finals Wrestling Tournament in the 145 
pound weight class.
  Nolan was in a scoreless bout until the third period, where he took 
down his opponent and secured a victory. As a former athlete, I 
appreciate the fortitude Nolan displayed to achieve his dream of being 
a state champion and commend him for his efforts and attitude. Nolan is 
an example of the importance of dedication and a strong work ethic, and 
I am proud to see him represent Taylor Ridge so well throughout the 
state with his talent and passion.
  It is because of student leaders such as Nolan Throne that I am 
especially proud to serve Illinois' 17th Congressional District. Madam 
Speaker, I would like to again formally congratulate Nolan Throne on 
his Class 1A State Finals title in Wrestling.
