                            HON. GREG LOPEZ

                       Tuesday, December 3, 2024

  Mr. LOPEZ. Mr. Speaker, Colorado high school women's volleyball coach 
Michelle Baker was recently awarded the Horizon Award from the Colorado 
High School Athletics Association. This award is presented to Michelle 
for the significant improvements to Wiggins High School's volleyball 
program she has brought about over the past few years. Her dedication 
to her team and the women's volleyball program at Wiggins High is an 
inspiration to all.
  Every student deserves the opportunity to compete in sports. Coaches 
like Michelle make that possible by coaching their players towards 
success on and off the court, teaching them skills like discipline, 
teamwork, and work ethic that will benefit them for years to come.
  It is my distinct privilege as the United States Representative of 
the 4th District of Colorado, to congratulate Michelle for her hard 
work in achieving this award, and for improving Wiggins High School's 
women's volleyball team. Her dedication to the development of Colorado 
athletics cannot be understated, and I encourage Michelle to continue 
cultivating the best women's volleyball program at Wiggins High for the 
betterment of her players and the school at large.
