Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the achievement of the girls soccer team at Frederica Academy with their back-to-back State title wins.

The team defended their State title with a final score of 1-0 against the Westminster Schools of Augusta. The goal was scored by freshman Sophia Gregg who outmaneuvered her defenders in the first half of the game. Gregg's goal was made possible by an assist from Mary Ford Fitzjurls.

Frederica's strong defense was also able to hold off every shot attempt made at their goal. This allowed them to go undefeated in the Georgia Independent Athletic Association AAA District 2 Region, making them the number one ranked team in the region.

Congratulations to the young women of the Frederica Academy soccer team. I know I speak for the whole First District when I say we are very proud of you.
