STATEHOUSE (Jan. 28, 2020) – State Rep. Bob Morris (R-Fort Wayne) recently honored the Fort Wayne Bishop Dwenger cheerleading team and Saints cross country runner Erin Strzelecki at the Statehouse.

The Bishop Dwenger cheer squad took first place at the 2019 Indiana State Cheer Competition and went undefeated all season. This latest win marks the Saints’ eighth team state varsity title.  

“These girls dedicate a tremendous amount of time and effort to accomplish their goals, and should be proud of this incredible achievement,” Morris said. 

Strzelecki, also honored at the Statehouse, won the individual girls cross country state title last fall and will continue running collegiately at Notre Dame. Most recently, she was named the Gatorade Indiana Girls Cross Country Runner of the Year.

“I have so much respect for cross country runners and the endurance they show,” Morris said. “To place first in the state is an amazing accomplishment.”
