        CONGRATULATING WAYZATA HIGH SCHOOL BOYS TRACK AND FIELD

  (Mr. PAULSEN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. PAULSEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate the Wayzata High 
School boys track and field team on winning the Minnesota State 
championship.
  After coming up just short the last 2 years, the Trojans were boosted 
by strong performances from distance runners Jaret Carpenter and Connor 
Olson. In addition, Wayzata was led by Wesley Jackson's second-place 
finish in the long jump, Tyler Didier's third-place

finish in the 400-meter dash, and a number of strong relay teams. It 
absolutely was a complete team effort.
  These athletes spend practice after practice pushing themselves and 
each other to reach their personal bests. In addition, every single one 
of these student athletes still manage to meet and excel at other 
school, family, and social obligations.
  Mr. Speaker, the families, teachers, friends, and entire community 
are very proud of these high school champs.
  Congratulations to Coach Aaron Berndt and the Wayzata High School 
boys track and field team on a job well done.
