Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the North Cross School boys' tennis team from Roanoke, Virginia, for winning the 2024 Virginia Independent Schools Athletic Association Division II State championship. This momentous win marks a historic three-peat for the Raiders, who went 16 and 1 this season and now have added a fifth boys' tennis State championship to North Cross School's trophy cabinet. The roster, consisting of Tyler Bloomfield, Attilio Ciccozzi, Jamey Davis, Jacob Juneau, Christian Lang, George Lugar, Henry Lugar, Shar Nanda, Anderson Ratliff, Sam Schaefer, Paul Schaefer, Nikheel Sherigar, and Abram Sherman, exemplified the values of hard work and perseverance. Their individual and collective achievements serve as a true testament to their commitment to excellence. I commend North Cross School Head Coach Jim Shaefer and Assistant Coach Ryan Schlachter for their unwavering dedication to nurturing a team of such extraordinary talents. I want to highlight the remarkable accomplishments of first-team all- State members Henry Lugar and George Lugar, and second-team all-State Jacob Juneau and Tyler Bloomfield. Madam Speaker, once again, I congratulate the North Cross Raiders boys' tennis team on this incredible accomplishment, and I wish them the best for seasons to come. Honoring the Life and Work of P. Buckley Moss
