 HONORING THE AUGUSTA STATE UNIVERSITY MEN'S GOLF TEAM FOR WINNING THE 
               2010 NCAA DIVISION I NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. PAUL C. BROUN

                               of georgia

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 24, 2010

  Mr. BROUN of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the 
accomplishments of the NCAA National Champion Augusta State University 
men's golf team. The Jaguars, competing in their first ever Division I 
National Championship, beat seven larger schools from prestigious 
conferences to win their first national title.
  In a classic ``David vs. Goliath'' battle, this year's NCAA national 
championship came down to the wire as Augusta State defeated 10-time 
champs Oklahoma State 3-1-1 in the final match of the 112th NCAA 
Championships at The Honors Course just outside Chattanooga, Tennessee. 
Led by this year's National Coach of the Year Josh Gregory, the Augusta 
State men's golf team has stamped its name in the record books and 
established what I hope becomes a dynasty.
  Jake Amos, Olle Bengtsson, Jacob Carlsson, Taylor Floyd, Brendan 
Gillins, Mitch Krywulycz, Carter Newman, Henrik Norlander, Patrick 
Reed, Shawn Yim, Coach Josh Gregory, students, faculty, and supporters 
should all be immensely proud. I congratulate them all, and I ask my 
colleagues to join me in recognizing their success and wishing them all 
the best in future seasons.
