             UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON'S MOVIN' MAVS

  (Mr. FROST asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. FROST. Mr. Speaker, last year I was extremely honored to announce 
on the House floor that the University of Texas at Arlington wheelchair 
basketball champions captured their third consecutive national 
championship. They were the first wheelchair basketball team to visit 
the White House.
  Well, they've done it again, and, in their own hometown. On March 9, 
the Movin' Mavs captured their fourth consecutive national championship 
at the NCAA final four wheelchair basketball tournament held at the 
University of Texas at Arlington.
  I am very proud of this extraordinary team. The individual battle 
that each team member waged to overcome disability and become a 
champion is truly inspiring.
  My congratulations go to the 1994 UTA Movin' Mavs wheelchair 
basketball team: James Anthony Hayes, coach; Lee Castillo, assistant 
coach; Henry Torres, assistant coach; Juan Pulido, manager; Raquel 
Delgado, trainer; Richard Ellis, statistician; Bobby Holcomb, Don 
Bradley Michael, Chhalyl Mak, Phung Tran, Dennis Harrison, Jason C. Van 
Beek, Ciprian Falcon, Rusty Belknap, Javier Gonzalez, Jr., Cezar 
Olivas, and Hans Ostergaard.
