Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 106 (Wednesday, June 24, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 106 (Wednesday, June 24, 2026)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E613] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] CONGRATULATING THE J.P. McCASKEY HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS TRACK AND FIELD TEAM ON THEIR STATE TITLE ______ HON. LLOYD SMUCKER of pennsylvania in the house of representatives Wednesday, June 24, 2026 Mr. SMUCKER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate and recognize the J.P. McCaskey High School girls track and field team on securing first place in the 2026 PIAA Class 3A Track and Field Championship. The Red Tornados made history on May 22 and May 23 at the PIAA Class 3A Track and Field Championship, earning their third girls team state title in school history and their first since 1993. McCaskey's gold medals in the 400-meter relay and 800-meter relay propelled them to first place. The relay team of Damani Crossen, Ella Petrosky, Alonda Grover, and Corrine Miller nabbed gold with a time of 47.20 seconds, while Vivian Salerno capped off her historic season with an 800-meter time of 2:08.61. A silver medal in the 100-meter and fourth-place finish in the 200-meter cemented an accolade-heavy weekend for Ella Petrosky. Team success in the javelin and 3,200-relay also contributed to McCaskey's first-place finish at the PIAA Championship. With a total of 42 points, the Red Tornados eclipsed the second-place finishers by 15 points. The McCaskey girls track and field team has made the school district and Lancaster County proud with its incredible performance at the 2026 PIAA Track and Field Championship. I congratulate coach Derek Jennings, his staff, and the athletes on their well-earned success. I look forward to seeing what these student-athletes accomplish next, and I wish them all the best of luck. ____________________
