Announcements, Adjournment Honors, and Remarks Under Special Privilege
Senator Vukmir, with unanimous consent, asked that the Senate adjourn in honor of her son, First Lieutenant Nicholas Vukmir, in the United States Army. He is an infantry officer and 2 days ago, he started the long journey of becoming an Army Ranger.
Senator Harsdorf, with unanimous consent, asked that the Senate adjourn in honor of Coach Sadie Schradle and the Clayton Girls’ Volleyball team on winning the WIAA Division 4 State Championship. The Clayton Bears defeated the Lourdes Academy Knights in four sets. Clayton’s formidable attack was led by juniors Alison Leslie, who had 22 kills, and Selena Levendoski, who had 21 kills and 19 digs. Jaedyn Bussewitz added an impressive 10 kills and 15 digs for the Bears. Clayton entered the tournament ranked number 1 with only 2 losses on their record. Their road to the finals went through the four time reigning state champ, Newman Catholic, with a 3 to 2 win in the semifinals. Clayton won their third state title without any seniors on the roster and will likely be a tough team to beat next year.

It is a special honor and yet we could not serve our constituents without our staff, so she’d like to thank her staff.
