Mr. LATTA. Mr. Speaker, it is with a great deal of pride that I rise to pay a very special tribute to an outstanding high school athlete from Ohio's Fifth Congressional District. Ariannah Floyd, a senior at Firelands High School, has represented her school ably on her way to achieving the Division II State Title for the 300 Meter Hurdles at the State Track and Field Meet. Ariannah overcame the challenges posed by intense competition in her effort to win the title.

In pursuing the State Championship, Ariannah defeated her opponents with an impressive time of 42.76 seconds. Her hard work and dedication, both on and off the track, in achieving this accomplishment is truly outstanding. She has achieved an impressive season, bringing pride to her school and community.
