                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. ERIK PAULSEN

                              of minnesota

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, April 15, 2013

  Mr. PAULSEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the Edina Boys 
Hockey Team on their impressive performance at the State Hockey 
Tournament victory on March 9, 2013.
  The team defeated Hill Murray High School in the finals to win their 
11th State Tournament title and end their season with a 22-6 winning 
record. This game served as the programs' rubber match, with Edina 
winning the championship in 1988 and Hill Murray evening the series in 
2008. This year, Edina came out the victor once again.
  The Edina Boys hockey program carries on a proud tradition of success 
in athletics at Edina High School under the coaching staff of Curt 
Giles.
  All of these student athletes, their parents and their coaches 
deserve praise for their dedication and determination.
  It is an honor to be able to represent, and recognize, such all-star 
athletes. Congratulations!

                          ____________________
