Nansemond-Suffolk Softball team on winning the 2024 VISAA DII State 
Championship.
  As their Congresswoman, I am proud of these young athletes and their 
recent achievement.
  Located in Suffolk, Virginia, the Nansemond-Suffolk Saints were able 
to bring the VISAA DII State Championship back home to their fellow 
students, faculty, families, and friends through their hard work and 
dedication to their team. The Nansemond-Suffolk Softball Team is 
celebrating their fifth straight state championship title with their 
head coach, Brittany Thornburg, leading her team to victory.
  As a former athlete myself, I want each of these young women to know 
Virginia's 2nd District is extremely proud of their accomplishment and 
applauds them on their well-earned victory. Again, congratulations to 
the Nansemond-Suffolk Softball Team on winning the 2024 VISAA DII State 
Championship.
