               CONGRATULATING THE NORTH CAROLINA COURAGE

  (Mr. PRICE of North Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. PRICE of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, I rise today to 
congratulate the North Carolina Courage for their second straight 
National Women's Soccer League Championship and their third title in 
the past 4 years.
  Their four-goal win was the largest margin of victory in NWSL 
history.
  The Triangle area that I represent in North Carolina has truly 
embraced this team with a record-setting crowd attending Sunday's 
match.
  Now, this was really a team effort, but I do want to give a special 
shout-out to Coach Paul Riley, MVP Debinha Miri, and the retiring 
great--Heather O'Reilly. I must also mention the four members from the 
Courage who also led us to victory in the 2019 Women's World Cup: 
Crystal Dunn, Sam Mewis, Abby Dahlkemper, and Jessica McDonald.
  Thank you for making North Carolina proud. And congratulations again 
to the North Carolina Courage.
