  CONGRATULATING UNIVERSITY OF NEW MEXICO'S LOBO MEN'S BASKETBALL TEAM

  (Mr. HEINRICH asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HEINRICH. Mr. Speaker, I am proud to stand on the House floor 
today to congratulate our University of New Mexico Lobos men's 
basketball team for winning the 2010 Mountain West Conference 
Championship. In this truly remarkable season, the Lobos tied the 
school record for consecutive conference wins. This is the second 
consecutive year that the Lobos have won the conference championship. 
And the team recently cracked the Nation's top 10 in both the AP and 
ESPN/USA Today polls, a feat not accomplished in more than a decade.
  To all the team members and to the academic all-American and team 
leader, senior Roman Martinez, and to all the UNM students, faculty and 
staff, I want to congratulate you on a tremendous season, and I look 
forward to your continued success in the rest of March Madness.
  Finally, I want to wish the team good luck tonight in their game 
against TCU, and I join the rest of the Lobos nation in declaring, 
``Everyone's a Lobo. Woof, woof, woof.''
