Mr. LATTA. Madam Speaker, it is with a great deal of pride that I rise to pay a very special tribute to an outstanding high school volleyball team in Ohio's Fifth Congressional District. The young women of the Liberty-Benton High School volleyball team have represented their school ably on their way to becoming the Champions of the Division III State Volleyball Championship tournament. The Liberty- Benton Eagles overcame the challenges of intense competition on the path to reach the championship playoffs, capping off an outstanding season with their noteworthy performance.

In pursuing the State Championship, the Liberty-Benton Eagles defeated their outstanding competitors to win the state volleyball title. The Eagles played an impressive final game that highlighted the teamwork they have demonstrated throughout their trip to the playoffs. Each member of this very special team has shown the individual effort that their sport requires for a successful team result. As a direct consequence of their hard work and dedication, both on and off the court, they achieved an impressive season record that brought pride to their community.

Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in paying special tribute to the Liberty-Benton High School volleyball team. On behalf of the people of the Fifth District of Ohio, I am proud to recognize this great achievement.
