          CONGRATULATING THE VANDERBILT UNIVERSITY COMMODORES

  Mr. ALEXANDER. Mr. President, as a fellow Commodore, I would like to 
congratulate the Vanderbilt University baseball team on winning the 
College World Series and bringing home Vanderbilt's first men's 
national championship.
  Tim Corbin, Vanderbilt's outstanding coach who has been named 
National Coach of the Year by Collegiate Baseball, is to be commended 
for his exceptional leadership and determination throughout the entire 
season.
  This was a hard-fought win, and I am so proud of the perseverance and 
tenacity of Coach Corbin and these young men.
  Vanderbilt is a very special university, one that produces student-
athletes of exceptional character, integrity, and pride in themselves 
and their school.
  It is a privilege to be a home-State alumnus of a university that 
continues to embrace these values while also encouraging its students 
to excel in both academics and athletics.
  I am filled with pride today for my alma mater, and I wish the 
baseball team and all of Vanderbilt University the best.
  This achievement would not have been possible without the skill, 
determination and teamwork of the following outstanding student-
athletes:
