Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate an outstanding athlete from Anoka, Minnesota. Reese Dehen, this year, became a repeat State champion in swimming. She won the State swimming title in the Class AA 200 individual medley, and then the sophomore from Anoka continued to add a second State championship in the 100 breaststroke during the swimming State championships at the University of Minnesota. Reese is an outstanding young talent and one of Minnesota's premier athletes. She is also a role model for thousands of young swimmers and student athletes who make the sacrifice to achieve the best they can be. Mr. Speaker, I congratulate Reese and thank her for being a great role model. Our entire community is proud of her. Honoring Christopher Stewart, an Outstanding Educator
