    OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENTS OF UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN MEN'S 
                        SWIMMING AND DIVING TEAM

  (Mr. WILLIAMS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. WILLIAMS. Mr. Speaker, today I would like to bring attention to 
the outstanding achievements of the University of Texas at Austin men's 
swimming and diving team. For the fourth consecutive year, this team 
took home the NCAA title.
  College athletes from around the country dream about competing at the 
NCAA championships. As student-athletes, this could also mark the peak 
of their athletic career.
  In addition to these incredible athletes, I would like to 
congratulate their coach, Eddie Reese. Coach Reese has the most wins in 
this sport's history. After 40 seasons at the University of Texas, he 
has trained athletes to win 14 national titles.
  Coaches like this don't come around often, and I would like to thank 
Coach Reese for his dedication to this great university.
  I would also like to take this time to identify UT seniors on the 
team: Jonathan Roberts, Brett Ringgold, and Joseph Schooling. As they 
leave their college days behind, they will always remember this moment, 
and they will remember this team.
  Mr. Speaker, I would like to congratulate the University of Texas on 
these impressive accomplishments and simply say: Hook `em.
  In God we trust.
