                                                                  H.R. No. 154



R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, The girls' swimming and diving team of Highland Park 
High School in Dallas captured the University Interscholastic 
League Class 4A State Championship for 2005-2006; and
	WHEREAS, This achievement marks the sixth straight title for 
the team, which equals the state record for the most consecutive 
swimming and diving championships in the history of Texas high 
school sports; and
	WHEREAS, The team's victory was aided by state titles in 
several events, including the 400-yard freestyle relay, in which 
Natalie Sacco, Alexandra Jennings, Alex Weber, and Bolton Harris 
powered their way to victory, and the 200-yard medley relay, in 
which Jennings, Sacco, and Harris were joined by Meredith Higgins 
in winning the finals; moreover, Natalie Sacco turned in 
title-winning performances in two other events, the 200-yard 
individual medley and the 100-yard butterfly; and
	WHEREAS, A team championship can only be won by a true group 
effort, and Highland Park also received an essential contribution 
from the other members of its talented team: Tori Beckman, Lindsay 
Mackintosh, Delaney Rolfe, Amy Shyr, Adele Wilson, and manager 
Becca House; and
	WHEREAS, This impressive collection of raw swimming and 
diving talent was molded by the inspired leadership of Jeff Olsen, 
who was named Class 4A and Under Coach of the Year for girls' 
swimming by the Texas Interscholastic Swimming Coaches 
Association; and
	WHEREAS, In winning the state title, these aquatic athletes 
displayed both tremendous skill and admirable dedication, and their 
achievement will stand as yet another proud moment in the legacy of 
Highland Park sports excellence; now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 79th Texas 
Legislature, 3rd Called Session, hereby congratulate the girls' 
swimming and diving team of Highland Park High School for winning 
the UIL Class 4A State Championship for 2005-2006 and extend to them 
sincere best wishes for continued success; and, be it further
	RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 
prepared for the team as an expression of high regard by the Texas 
House of Representatives.
