LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION commending Andrew Guinther of Queensbury High
School upon the occasion of capturing the 2010 New York State 100-yard
breaststroke title

WHEREAS, This Legislative Body takes pleasure in honoring talented high
school athletes who distinguish themselves and their community through
outstanding athletic performance; and
WHEREAS, Attendant to such concern, and in full accord with its long-
standing traditions, it is the intent of this Legislative Body to
commend Andrew Guinther of Queensbury High School upon the occasion of
capturing the 2010 New York State 100-yard breaststroke title; and
WHEREAS, In winning the 100-yard breaststroke title at the New York
State swim meet held at Erie Community College, Andrew Guinther earned
the unique distinction of being the first boys' swimming champion in
Queensbury High School history; and
WHEREAS, Andrew Guinther, who will attend Boston University next fall,
finished with a winning time of 57.22 which broke the Queensbury school
record as well as the Section II record; this time is among the fastest
ever swum in New York, and is a half-second off the state record; it
merits All-America consideration; and
WHEREAS, Excellence and success in competitive sports can be achieved
only through strenuous practice; Andrew Guinther's dedication to swim-
ming is a year-round, everyday commitment; he is highly focused and has
developed a matchless work ethic; and
WHEREAS, Andrew Guinther's exemplary performance is reflective of his
dedication, determination and personal commitment; his achievement
stands as a hallmark of what is best in the families, schools and commu-
nities across New York State; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That this Legislative Body pause in its deliberations to
commend Andrew Guinther of Queensbury High School upon the occasion of
capturing the 2010 New York State 100-yard breaststroke title, and to
congratulate him for the enduring honor he has brought to his family,
his school and his community; and be it further
RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution, suitably engrossed, be tran-
smitted to Andrew Guinther.
