                      Thursday, September 12, 2019

  Mr. HUDSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Rowan Little 
League's victory in the Little League Softball World Series 
Championship. Rowan Little League is based out of the City of 
Salisbury, located in North Carolina's 8th Congressional District.
  Rowan Little League defeated Eastbank Little League 4-1 on August 14, 
2019 in the championship game at Alenrose Stadium in Portland, Oregon. 
This marks Rowan's fourth trip to the World Series in the past five 
seasons and is their second title, an extraordinary accomplishment for 
the perennially successful program.
  Under the direction of Coach Steve Yang, the program has exemplified 
the very best of North Carolina through tenacity and perseverance. 
Rowan far exceeded expectations this summer and enjoyed a perfect 17-0 
record, including 7-0 in World Series play.
  I know I speak for our entire community in offering my most heartfelt 
congratulations to the exemplary young women of Rowan Little League. 
These young leaders are the heart and soul of our community and I 
couldn't be more proud.
  Madam Speaker, please join me today in celebrating Rowan Little 
League's victory in the Little League Softball World Series 
Championship.
