Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate a group of exceptional young men from my home in the Virgin Islands for their division title win this past week in Minnesota during the USA CUP tournament, the largest youth soccer tournament in the Western Hemisphere. The St. Croix Helenites Sports Club under-16 squad played through the quarterfinals and semifinal rounds to clench the championship. The boys on the under-11 team also played with great heart and made it to the top four in their division. Our entire community is tremendously proud of our boys for their hard work, their great sportsmanship. The Virgin Islands is small, but when we show up, we show out, and we excel. We are all so proud of Head Coach Raejae Joseph, Assistant Coach Dale Richards, parents, young men, and my boy Nico. Let's go St. Croix Helenites Sports Club. ____________________
