                        Thursday, June 16, 2016

  Mr. PAULSEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the Wayzata 
High School Boys Track and Field team on winning their second 
consecutive Minnesota State championship.
  The Trojans defended their title led by first place finishes by Jaret 
Carpenter in both the sixteen-hundred meter and thirty-two-hundred 
meter races, and strong performances from the relay teams. Wayzata used 
a complete team effort to win the title and I commend them for their 
accomplishments.
  These athletes spend countless hours practicing to reach their 
personal bests. They understand the value of teamwork and sportsmanship 
to not only become better athletes and teammates, but better students, 
members of the community, and future leaders.
  In addition, they manage their time to excel at school, as well as 
fulfill and exceed family and social obligations.

  Mr. Speaker, the families, teachers, friends, and our entire 
community are very proud of these high school champs. Congratulations 
to the Wayzata High School Boys Track and Field team on a job well 
done.
