                        Thursday, June 29, 2006

  Mr. TANCREDO. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to congratulate Mr. Brian 
Christensen of Littleton, CO, on his victory in the NCAA Archery 
Recurve finals.
  Mr. Christensen is a one-man team from Colorado State University, he 
is self-coached and his achievements are noteworthy. He has further 
ambitions to compete in the 2008 Summer Olympics. He has also been 
named Colorado Archer of the Year. Previously he has

won the World Archery Festival in 2002 and 2003. Archery requires 
intense concentration and therefore he has used his discipline in the 
academic realm as well; currently he is using this in his goal of 
graduating with a degree in Sports Medicine.
  Mr. Speaker, it is my distinct pleasure to honor Mr. Christensen and 
his achievements here today, and wish him all the best in his future 
endeavors.
