  IN HONOR OF THE ARSENAL TECHNICAL HIGH SCHOOL BOYS BASKETBALL TEAM, 
                          2014 STATE CHAMPIONS

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. ANDRE CARSON

                               of indiana

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, April 4, 2014

  Mr. CARSON of Indiana. Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate the boy's 
basketball team at Arsenal Technical High School which is part of 
Indianapolis Public School district. The Titans were crowned the 
Division 4A Indiana State Boys Basketball Champions on March 30, 2014 
after capturing the state title with a 63-59 victory in front of a sold 
out crowd at Indianapolis Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
  As a graduate of Arsenal Tech, I am proud of this team's 
achievements. The Titans made their first appearance in the state 
finals in 1929, and 85 years later they earned their first state 
championship. Their accomplishment is also significant because it has 
been 34 years since an Indianapolis Public School program has won this 
title. Additionally, all the Tech fans, in particular the energetic 
student body should be recognized for their enthusiasm and pride in 
their team.
  Today, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating the Arsenal 
Technical High School Titans, coaches, school officials, teachers and 
the greater Indianapolis community on their accomplishments this 
season.

                          ____________________
