                      CELEBRATING TREVOR BAPTISTE

  (Mr. PAYNE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. PAYNE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate Trevor Baptiste, 
an all-star, two-time world champion lacrosse player.
  Trevor is a professional lacrosse player for the Philadelphia Wings 
of the National Lacrosse League and the Atlas Lacrosse Club of the 
Premier Lacrosse League.
  He was born and grew up in Newark, New Jersey, before becoming a 
lacrosse star at the University of Denver.
  In his 4 years there, Trevor was a four-time, first-team all-American 
and a national champion. After college, Trevor won two world 
championships with the United States men's national team, and he has 
been an all-star every year as a professional.
  His specialty is winning face-offs. In college, he owns the national 
record for face-offs won and the highest winning percentage. For Team 
USA, he has the highest face-off winning percentage in team history.
  Trevor Baptiste is an exceptional lacrosse player, and I am proud to 
highlight him on the House floor today.
