CONGRATULATING THE CHAMPLIN PARK CHAMPS
(Mr. PAULSEN asked and was given permission to address the House for

minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. PAULSEN. Madam Speaker, I want to congratulate the Champlin Park
Rebels girls volleyball team on winning the Minnesota State High School
Championship, the first team in school history to bring a championship
trophy back to Champlin Park.
Their victory came after outlasting a very talented Eagan team,
playing in its sixth consecutive state final. But the Rebels were just
too much for them, starting strong and then never looking back.
The pressure was on for the Rebels to win their school's first ever
state title, and they delivered every step of the way. They showed the
kind of true determination that makes them champions both on and off
the court.
So, Madam Speaker, congratulations to these student athletes, the
coaches, their parents, and all of the fans, and the entire Champlin
Park community on a well-deserved, hard fought win becoming state
champions.
