  CONGRATULATIONS TO THE LADY MOUNTAINEERS OF MOUNT ST. MARY'S COLLEGE

  (Mr. BARTLETT of Maryland asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BARTLETT of Maryland. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate 
the Lady Mountaineers of Mount Saint Mary's College in beautiful 
Frederick County, MD, on their first ever appearance in the NCAA 
Division 1 Women's Basketball Tournament.
  Since moving to division 1, 5 years ago, the Lady Mountaineers have 
compiled an impressive record with five straight regular season NEC 
championships. They have continued a tradition of excellence that has 
resulted in winning seasons in 18 of the last 20 years. Their hard work 
and determination paid off this year in an impressive 78 to 67 win over 
Saint Francis College to give them the NEC tournament championship. The 
Lady Mountaineers were led by Susie Rowlyk who scored 26 points and was 
named tournament MVP as well as NEC player of the year.
  Mr. Speaker, in addition to the Lady Mountaineers excellence on the 
basketball court, these young women have proven a commitment to 
learning in the classroom by compiling a composite GPA that would place 
them on the dean's list.
  Mr. Speaker, I would like to wish the Lady Mountaineers the best of 
luck in the tournament game against the Hawkeyes of Iowa, and 
congratulate them on a job well done.
