“Mr. Speaker, last week the Auburn University swim team dominated the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships by winning the men’s national title.

“The Tigers routed their nearest competitors by 196.5 points and qualified eleven swimmers for the championship finals and four more for the consolation finals. This was the men’s team third national title ever.

“But the men were diving on the heels of the Auburn women’s swim team, who during the previous week, won their first-ever National Championship.
