               HONORING THE DELRAN HIGH SCHOOL SWIM TEAM

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JIM SAXTON

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, February 10, 2000

  Mr. SAXTON. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to congratulate the Delran High 
School swim team for winning its third straight South Jersey 
Championship and second straight state championship. The Delran swim 
team dynasty is an excellent example of high school athletes performing 
at their peak level.
  Seldom does a team win a championship, even more rare are back to 
back championships. It takes extraordinary teamwork, dedication, and 
perseverance to become a championship team. I applaud the Delran High 
School swim team's efforts.
  I would also like to recognize the following Delran swim team 
members: Mike Haigh, Steve Kroculick, Rachel Craft, Danielle Hoey, 
Jenny Kroculick, Karl Scheimreif, Gerall Tieman, Michelle Aleszczyk, 
Karlee Scheimreif, Jen Tregl, Lauren Schmidt, Danielle Kennedy, Brandon 
Peer, Craig Tieman, Anne Kennedy Caityln Hoey, Ryan Hannon, Pat 
Reynolds and Joey Iannuzzi.
  Perhaps the most important role of any team is that of the one played 
by the coach. Delran's coach, Michael Kennedy, molded and trained this 
formidable championship swim squad. Coach Kennedy's efforts cannot be 
overlooked and should be commended.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in congratulating this special group of 
individuals. Their efforts have brought pride to their community, 
families and high school.
