                          PUYALLUP HIGH SCHOOL

  (Mr. HECK of Washington asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. HECK of Washington. Mr. Speaker, in Washington State, 67 schools 
compete in the 4A high school sports division--67 schools, nine spring 
sports teams and one dream.
  For three spring teams representing the Puyallup purple and gold, 
that dream came true.
  This spring, Puyallup High School, located in the 10th Congressional 
District, captured State titles in baseball, fastpitch softball, and 
boys golf.
  The Vikings baseball team finished their season undefeated, and for 
the first time in the history of our State, both the baseball and the 
fastpitch softball teams won their State championships. Boys golf 
joined them, and three of the top five players were from Puyallup High 
School.
  When I was in high school, it was a thrill beyond measure just to get 
to the State playoffs. It is inconceivable to win not one, not two, but 
three State championships. The 10th District is proud of the Vikes, and 
we congratulate all of the student athletes who made these dreams come 
true.
