  Mr. CAMP. Madam Speaker, I rise today to commend the team members of 
the Midland Dow High School Boys Tennis Team. They have represented the 
town of Midland well with their perseverance and athleticism, and we 
are very proud of their accomplishments.
  The Chargers won the Division Two Boys State Tennis Championship on 
Saturday, November 17, 2009, after defeating Battle Creek-Lakeview High 
School: 30-23. This win gives Midland Dow their first Boys Tennis state 
championship since 1984.
  Additionally, this Chargers team was the embodiment of both teamwork 
and determination. Led by Coach Terry Schwartzkopf, these boys were 
also models of sportsmanship and set good examples on and off the 
court.
  Team members include: Juan Guerra, Alekzander Davila, Santiago 
Guerra, Jonathan Gurnee, J.P. Gurnee, Jon Templeman, Austin Woody, 
Kevin Winegar, Jacob Poliskey, Nate Karsten, Brandon LaFreniere, Alex 
Haslam, David Read, and Scott Kendall.
  I am honored today to recognize the Midland Dow Boys Tennis Team for 
their accomplishments, and congratulate them on their state 
championship.
