                         Monday, April 15, 2013

  Mr. PAULSEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the Eden 
Prairie Boys Swim Team on their outstanding performance at this year's 
Minnesota State High School League Meet. The Eden Prairie Boys put on a 
dominating performance, winning their second state championship in as 
many years.
  This Eden Prairie team has now gone two consecutive seasons 
undefeated, ending the year with a 7-0 record.
  This dream season, as described by the team's coach, Kelly Boston, 
was capped off by winning performances by many of the team's members. 
Two relay teams and three individual swimmers captured state titles at 
the meet, and the Eden Prairie squad amassed 9 total top-three finishes 
while breaking state records in the 400 freestyle relay and the 200 
medley relay.
  All of these student athletes, their parents and their coaches 
deserve praise for their dedication and determination.
  It's an honor to be able to represent, and recognize, such all-star 
athletes. Congratulations!

                          ____________________
