                        Tuesday, August 2, 1994

  Mr. PACKARD. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to a truly 
outstanding athlete, Mr. Brian Earley of Aliso Viejo, CA. Mr. Earley 
recently competed at the U.S. Olympic Festival in St. Louis. He won a 
Silver Medal in the 1-meter springboard competition.
  Mr. Earley has competed in numerous national and international 
competitions. He has been diving for 17 years and trains 2 to 5 hours 
per day.
  His diving career is distinguished, with such accolades as qualifying 
first on the 1-meter springboard at the 1994 Alamo World Diving Trials, 
1994 U.S. 1-meter champion, winner of the Phillips Performance Award at 
the 1994 Phillips 66 National Diving Championships, and 1994 and 1992 
NCAA platform champion. He has also placed in international events such 
as the China Open, Four Nations Meet, and several other competitions. 
He has been a national team member in 1990, 1992, and 1994. He was 
trained by his father, Mr. Rick Earley, a former diving olympian.
  Mr. Brian Earley recently graduated from the University of Southern 
California with a B.S. degree in business. I commend Brian for his 
achievements thus far and wish him the best in his future endeavors.
  Mr. Speaker, I hope you and my colleagues will join me in recognizing 
the accomplishments of Brian Earley. It is my sincere belief that Mr. 
Earley will further distinguish himself in the sport of diving. I join 
friends and family who salute him.
