CONGRATULATING THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA WOMEN'S BASKETBALL TEAM

  (Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, March is Women's History 
Month, and I am grateful to recognize inspirational women who have 
achieved success.
  Inspirational women are the University of South Carolina's basketball 
team, who won a sixth SEC title in 7 years, the first time that has 
been done in SEC history. Congratulations to these talented women for 
remaining number one.
  This game was also historic because it was the first time two Black 
head coaches met in a conference championship game with Coach Dawn 
Staley leading the Gamecocks and Coach Joni Taylor leading Georgia, an 
important milestone in American sports history.
  Best wishes to the Gamecock women in the NCAA tournament.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget 
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
  Our sympathy to the family of Hatsy Young, widow of former 
Congressman Ed Young from Florence.
