   CONGRATULATING UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND WOMEN'S BASKETBALL TEAM ON 
                       WINNING NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP

  (Mr. WYNN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WYNN. Madam Speaker, the sun is shining a little brighter in the 
great Free State of Maryland. Today, I rise to join my colleague Steny 
Hoyer in offering exuberant congratulations to the University of 
Maryland women's basketball team on winning the NCAA national 
basketball championship. In winning the championship, they had to 
overcome a very fine and very tough team from Duke University.
  Hats off to Coach Brenda Frese, starters Crystal Langhorne, Laura 
Harper, Marissa Coleman, Shay Duron, Kristi Toliver and the rest of the 
team, the assistant coaches, managers and the tremendous fans of the 
University of Maryland. You have made us all proud in the State of 
Maryland.
  You are a particular inspiration to all the young women around the 
country, like my 11-year-old daughter Gabriel, who have become 
tremendous fans of women's basketball.
  Today, all of Maryland salutes the University of Maryland's women's 
basketball team. Go, Terps.
