                 RECOGNIZING UALR MEN'S BASKETBALL TEAM

  (Mr. HILL asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HILL. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the University of 
Arkansas at Little Rock men's basketball team on their successful 2015-
2016 season. On Saturday, February 28, the Trojans won their first 
outright Sun Belt Conference title after 25 seasons in the league.
  In the first year under Chris Beard's leadership as head coach, the 
team embarked on one of the greatest turnarounds in the program's 
history, improving on a 13-18 record 1 year ago to a current record of 
26 wins and 3 losses.
  They are now moving on to victories, and I look forward to their 
continued success. As we see on the eve of March Madness, I look 
forward to seeing their big win against Purdue.
