Political Quotes

On the recordSeptember 7, 2011
Today I want to congratulate the Wilkes County 11/12-year-old-girls All-Star softball team for their amazing and record-breaking season this year. They won 15 games in a row and became the first team from North Carolina to reach the World Series. Although they did not take the World Series title, their third-place finish and their victories over opponents from around the country and around the world on their journey to the semifinals proved that this is a remarkable team. Their teamwork, sportsmanship, and character served to rally the entire Wilkes County community around them and saw them through their historic run for the World Championship of Little League Softball. I want to congratulate the whole team, the coaches, and the dedicated parents who helped make this season one for the record books. The Wilkes Girls All-Stars have inspired many and made their county proud. I hope to see them win their way back to the World Series again next year. ____________________
