WHEREAS, Demonstrating great skill and determination, the
boys' swimming and diving team of Carroll High School in Southlake
won the University Interscholastic League 5A state championship
with an outstanding performance at the state meet on February 18 and
19, 2011; and
WHEREAS, Facing the best talent in the state at The
University of Texas Swim Center in Austin, the Dragons scored an
impressive 255 points, beating runner-up Conroe High School by a
margin of 74; and
WHEREAS, Bryce Klein placed first in diving with a score of
562.75, a new school record; another key to the state title triumph
was Carroll High's fine efforts in the relay events, with the
400-meter freestyle team of Ted Singley, John Ausdenmoore, Ryan
Walker, and Connor Nolan placing third and the 200-meter freestyle
squad of Mr. Singley, Mr. Ausdenmoore, Curtis Goss, and John
Rematta placing fourth; moreover, Mr. Nolan, Mr. Goss, Mr.
Ausdenmoore, and Mr. Walker finished fifth in the 200-meter medley
relay, setting another school record; all of these swimmers also
took part in individual events, as did Jonathan Roberts, who was
eighth in the 500-meter freestyle; highlights included the
second-place showing by Mr. Nolan in the 200-meter freestyle and
the strong swims in the 500-meter freestyle by Mr. Singley and Mr.
Nolan, who finished second and third, respectively; and
WHEREAS, Winning a state championship represents the
culmination of countless hours of hard work and an enduring
commitment to excellence, and these talented student-athletes and
their coach, Kevin Murphy, may take justifiable pride in this
accomplishment; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate the Carroll High School boys'
swimming and diving team on winning the 2010-2011 UIL 5A state
championship and extend to its members 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.
