                        Wednesday, May 12, 2010

  Mr. GUTHRIE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Donna Wise, an 
outstanding coach, mentor and leader in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
  Donna, who is Campbellsville University's all-time winningest coach 
and a NAIA Hall of Famer, was inducted into the Kentucky Athletic Hall 
of Fame last month during a ceremony in Louisville.
  With a record of 661 wins, nearly 71% of her games, Donna has been 
dedicated to the Campbellsville community and to her student-athletes 
for over 30 years. She has coached 23 NAIA All-Americans and helped 
lead her teams to 16 national tournaments and 17 regular season 
conference titles.
  She has been named NAIA Coach of the Year three times and conference 
Coach of the Year seven times and continues to contribute so much to 
the university as the head of the Department of Human Performance.
  Donna has been an inspiration and guide for generations of 
Campbellsville Lady Tigers. She truly deserves this recognition.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating Donna on a 
successful and rewarding career and wish her nothing but the best in 
the years to come.
